Finding idioms based on anomalous word-form distribution
Dittrichová, Anna ; Kováříková, Dominika (advisor) ; Bozděchová, Ivana (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the search, description, classification, and dictionary comparison of idioms based on data provided by GramatiKat application, which can identify nominal lemmas with anomalous word-form distribution. The aim of the diploma thesis is to determine whether grammatical anomalies in nouns (unusually high frequencies of one or more forms within a morphological paradigm) indicate formally anomalous multi-word lexemes (idioms) and how this relationship varies across different cases. Additionally, it explores the types of idioms that most commonly appear in individual cases of the singular. The analysis, utilizing SYN2015 a SYNv11 corpora, revealed that 28 % of analyzed lemmas are part of one or more idioms. The most common case is the accusative (88 %), while the least common is the vocative (5 %). The analysis also identified various groups of idioms with similar characteristics. For instance, verbal idioms were frequently observed in the dative, contact idioms predominated in the vocative, and grammatical idioms were prevalent in the locative.

This diploma thesis deals with the comparison of Czech adaptions of the reality show Survivor - i.e. Trosečník (Prima, 2006), Robinsonův ostrov (Nova, 2017), and Survivor Česko & Slovensko (Nova, 2022). In the theoretical part, reality TV is defined at first - its definition, characteristics, reasons for success, modes of representation, and the difference between reality TV and reality are outlined, history of the format, its classification to subgenres and reality TV in the Czech Republic is introduced. A description of the globalization of television formats and the process of adapting licensed formats follows it. In the analytical part, firstly, the comparison methodology is described, and briefly, the selected adaptions and the original global format are characterized. Subsequently, a comparison of three Czech adaptions of the reality show Survivor is accomplished. In two more recent adaptions, only the show's first series is included in the comparison. The comparison of adaptions is based on the following aspects: the name of the show, program strategy (broadcasting schedule, number, and duration of episodes, sideshow), the cast (contestants and hosts), the visual and audio elements of the show, the episode structure, rules, content selection, and feedback (viewership, reviews).

Dittrichová, Anna ; Langrová, Iva (advisor) ; Nechybová, Stanislava (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to collect so far discovered findings about manipulation of behaviour caused by Toxoplasma gondii. The first part of this thesis introduces basic characteristic of the parasite and toxoplasmosis, which is a disease caused exactly by this parasite. In the second part we summarize outcomes of many different scientific essays that deal with manipulation of intermediate host behaviour. Toxoplasma gondii is a widespread parasite that can modify the behaviour of the intermediate host, which can lead to serious changes in psychological profile of infected people. Toxoplasmosis is one of the most common zoonosis in the Czech Republic, the prevalence reaches 25-30 %. Toxoplasmosis is usually an asymptomatic infection, however it modifies the behaviour and acting of the intermediate host in some special situasions, it also changes excretion of important substances and affects the secondary sex ratio too. Toxoplasmosis is a very important risk especially for imunodeficit people and pregnant women. The principle of prevention is very strict personal and food hygiene.
