Tesařová, Kristýna ; Bozděchová, Ivana (advisor) ; Lehečková, Eva (referee)
of the bachelor thesis Hybrid compound words in the most recent vocabulary In this bachelor thesis we treat the issue of hybrid compounds not only as an isolated linguistic phenomena, but as a part of language development of contemporary society and its vocabulary, which reflects social expression needs. Theoretical part of the thesis is based on knowledge about language tendencies and about dynamics of the media discourse. The core of the thesis is represented by the treatise on word-formation problems and classification of hybrid compounds with first international constituent complying with meaning "quantity, intensity, extent". In the corpus analysis, which was performed on material of two corpuses of media texts, SYN2006pub and SYN2009pub, were included components with general quantity-intensity semantics (mini-, mikro-, nano-, super-, maxi-, multi-, extra-, ultra-, mega-, giga-, makro-, monstr, top-) and also constituents with numeral meaning (mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-). As a high productive we consider the first set of components, which became involved in many spheres across the vocabulary of current social communication.

The Dog in Linguistic Picture of the World in Czech
Prokšová, Hana ; Vaňková, Irena (advisor) ; Bozděchová, Ivana (referee)
I. Abstract This paper is based on the theoretical principes of the Polish ethnolinguistic works introduced in the first part of this paper. We pay special attention to the theory of anthropocentrism of a natural language. The main focus of this theory is the differentiation between "one's own" and "human" on one side and "someone else's" and "non-human"on the other in a cognitive comprehension of the world. We further apply the anthropocentric approach to outline the conceptualization of domestic animals in the Czech language. The second part of the text deals with the expression pes (‚dog') in Czech and its derivatives, their position within the lexical system, their semantics, connotations and the stereotypes associated with them. The conclusion presents a cognitive definition of the concept pes (‚dog') in Czech. The definition builds upon the entry structure of the Polish Dictionary of Folk Stereotypes and Symbols.

Dvořáková, Jana ; Šebesta, Karel (advisor) ; Bozděchová, Ivana (referee)
The thesis deals with second language acquisition (SLA) of Czech in Russian and English students. It presents the main theories of SLA (generative and cognitive approaches) and compares them to the results of author's research into L2 acquisition of Czech morphology and syntax in speakers of two typologically and structurally different mothertongues. It shows that language transfer plays an important role in SLA and that some of the generative assumptions about SLA that are claimed to apply universally cannot be proven for Czech.
