The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to explore the use of Czech verb pattern "sázejí" and "sází" doublets in contemporary Czech fiction. The theoretical part provides a description of the historical development of the "sázet" pattern, describes the codification history of morphological variation, and describes the characteristics of the Czech fiction language sphere. The empirical part presents a sample of twelve Czech books and their editorial intervention habits. For each of these books, the characteristic language and sociolinguistic factors of the generation and the authors' regional origin are described. The hypotheses are set and presented based on the already existing research performed by Pavel Sojka, especially the research focusing on the prose of Bohumil Hrabal. Following the presentation of the individual results, the conclusion is presented and compared with the preceding research.

The provided conclusion describes factors influencing the distribution of doublets in fiction and summarises the stylistic trends in the Czech fiction sphere.

The first part of the work deals with the theory, especially with the theme of language varieties and the differences between them. The second part of the work is the empiric part, which consists of interviews with young students from the Zlin area. The interviews are led in such a way that the respondents do not know what exactly the subject matter is. The second part of the interview aims at the speakers' language reflection. All the interviews are recorded and transcribed. All the information crucial for this work is included in the transcriptions. The results of the empiric part partly confirm some theses which were established at the outset of the work. For example, that social interaction plays a significant role in the question of adaptation to the Common Czech. Results cannot be viewed as unequivocal, the conditions under which the interviews were made should be taken into consideration. What is more, the specific nature of each speaker should be considered too. The general summary could be that, in most of cases, some kind of linguistic accommodation on the language of the majority is present. The extent of the adaptation...
