Semantic analysis of selected Czech verbal prefixes
Lehoučková, Zuzana ; Vaňková, Irena (advisor) ; Lehečková, Eva (referee)
Cognitive linguistics differs from other linguistic approaches in its assumption that linguistic relations and processes reflect conceptual relations and proceses. Cognitive linguists are interested especially in the conceptual background of language structure. This paper is an attempt to describe and explain semantic characteristics of Czech verbal prefixes (of prefix vy- in particular) taking cognitive principles into account, such as categorization, prototype, profiling, embodiment, construal, conceptual integration, metaphor. This approach should be able to identify previously unnoticed semantic relations and show diverse realizations of the prefix as extensions from a single core meaning. Langacker's cognitive grammar is used as the most importatnt theoretical basis.
