Comparative analysis of professional texts on computer science
Chufarov, Evgeny ; Sučková, Magda (oponent) ; Zmrzlá, Petra (vedoucí práce)
The aim of this bachelor’s thesis is to provide a comparative analysis of professional texts on computer science. VxLAN technology, which is most often used in data centers, was chosen as the topic for the materials. The first text chosen for the analysis is a web journal article, the second is the technical documentation Request for Comments (RFC), the third is a video lecture. The main goal of this work is to examine the selected materials from different perspectives and to determine the extent to which the texts, written and spoken, differ in their use of language and what common features they have. To achieve this goal, the materials are investigated in terms of several discourse features, including language functions, style and genre, cohesion and coherence, and deixis. The work also tries to define whether the analyzed materials are typical examples of their genres and styles.

The Language of Patent Documentation
Gubernát, Tomáš ; Sučková, Magda (oponent) ; Smutný, Milan (vedoucí práce)
The subject of intellectual property can be very complicated. This bachelor’s thesis focuses mainly on intellectual property from a scientific and industrial standpoint and the discourse of patent documentation. This thesis aims to provide an overview and a quick guide for any potential applicants for patents or any other types of intellectual property described in this thesis - be they from the public or scholarly. This thesis is further focused on the analysis of the language of the patent documentation, which is very nuanced, and caveats encountered during the creation of patent application, during the grant procedure, or even after the patent was granted.

Řečové akty ve videohrách
Šurýn, David ; Zmrzlá, Petra (oponent) ; Sučková, Magda (vedoucí práce)
Tato bakalářská práce poskytuje nový pohled na klasifikaci interakcí ve videohrách založený na producentovi a adresátovi a obsahuje analýzu řečových aktů ve hrách Life Is Strange a Call of Duty. Tato klasifikace může být použita ke zjednodušení procesu analýzy řečových aktů v ostatních videohrách. Aby bylo možné takovou klasifikaci vytvořit, bylo nutné zaměřit se na vztah mezi hráčem a interagovatelným herním prvkem. Následně jsou představeny hlavní třídy interakcí ve videohrách, kde každá třída obsahuje specifické typy řečových aktů. Analýza řečových aktů v Life Is Strange a Call of Duty slouží primárně jako příklad toho, jak lze tuto klasifikaci použít a také představuje způsoby jak hra zprostředkovává informace hráči. Seznam interakcí ve videohrách není úplný, ale zahrnuje ty nejběžnější a nejuniverzálnější.

Pragmatic analysis of humorous air traffic control conversation exchanges
Doležal, Jakub ; Zmrzlá, Petra (oponent) ; Sučková, Magda (vedoucí práce)
The thesis studies the occurrence of humour in air traffic control (ATC) conversation exchanges and aims at answering the questions of its occurrence in such strictly professional discourse and finding patterns in it. This is done though pragmatic analysis for which theoretical background is provided in the first part of the thesis. Phenomenon of humour is discussed according to Attardo (1994), and its three main theories are presented: incongruity, superiority, and release (Raskin 1985). Division is established between different instances of humour: canned and conversational jokes (Attardo, 1994) and externally humorous situations. Grice’s (1975) Cooperative Principle (CP) and its Maxims is described in detail and is related to humour. Focus is on the transgressions of the CP: mainly violation, flouting and infringing. Attardo’s (1990) scheme of understanding a joke is adopted and modified for conversational humour. After introduction of ATC language, the analyses follow. Each consists of four parts: technical circumstances, humorous scheme, CP perspective, and theory of humour. The analysed conversations are divided into two groups: internally humorous and externally humorous. The first are further divided based on the use of a specific shared knowledge of the external world and the second based on the theory better explaining them: superiority or incongruity. With the focus on the internally humorous, the abilities and personality of the ‘humourist’ are proposed as crucial for the occurrence of humour with the main intention being to create more relaxed atmosphere (corresponding to the release theory of humour).

Dialects of English in computer games
Opanasiuk, Yevhenii ; Walek, Agata (oponent) ; Sučková, Magda (vedoucí práce)
This bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of the English dialects that appear in video games. Its aim is to analyze the use of different dialects in the Grand Theft Auto game series. The theoretical part is focused on providing the necessary concepts related to sociolinguistics, varieties of the language, dialects, accents, and game industry. The practical part is focused on the linguistic analysis of the English dialects that appear in the GTA game series. This analysis identifies game characters' dialects from a grammatical and phonological perspective and explains the reasons that led game developers to choose those dialects.

Signals and Systems - commented translation of teaching materials
Fluksa, Daniel ; Sučková, Magda (oponent) ; Zmrzlá, Petra (vedoucí práce)
This bachelor thesis is focused on the translation and analysis of professional study materials from Czech to English. The materials translated within this work pertain to the course Signals and Systems, and will be utilized at the Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication. The first part of this thesis focuses on translating selected excerpt of the teaching materials with an emphasis on the used terminology. The translation is carried out with consideration of its further use in the educational process and with the aim to achieve the greatest possible correspondence with the original text. The second part of the thesis deals with the analysis of language means using selected linguistic disciplines. This analysis aims to emphasize the importance and complexity of the process of translating professional texts, which requires not only knowledge of both languages but also a thorough understanding of the studied discipline.
