Anglicisms and slang expressions in the speech of youtuber Squeezie
Mabbettová, Anna ; Suková Vychopňová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Biegel, Madeleine (referee)
The present diploma thesis deals with the use of anglicisms and slang (argotic) expressions in the French language used by young people, based on the speech of the famous French youtuber Squeezie, who is understood here as a representative of said young generation, i.e. generation Z. The theoretical part defines the notion of loanwords and the specific situation for anglicisms in relation to French, from the historical influence of English on French to the types of anglicisms and language politics associated with them. It also discusses slang, or more specifically argot, its social context, word-formation processes, and the linguistic specifics of such slang in relation to the younger generation. The empirical part then provides an in-depth analysis of a selection of twenty of Squeezie's videos, identifying the number of occurrences, context of use and any thematic patterns or motivations for the use of all the anglicisms and slang terms used, drawing on the theory presented. KEYWORDS anglicisms, loanwords, argot, slang, youths, generation Z, lexicology

The impact of social media microtrends on sustainability within the fashion industry
Janoušková, Barbora ; Schneiderová, Soňa (advisor) ; Zavadilová, Tereza (referee)
This bachelor thesis examines the impact of social media microtrends on sustainability within the fashion industry. It begins with a description of the current state of the fashion industry in the digital environment and an analysis of how social media trends work. It then focuses on the issue of sustainability in the fashion industry and examines how the popularity of microtrends may be related to the negative environmental impacts of fast fashion. Through quantitative research, the aim of this thesis is to identify the impact of these microtrends on the purchasing behaviour of Generation Z and to deduce from the data how this behaviour affects sustainability within the fashion industry. The research was conducted through a questionnaire survey. In the discussion, the research results are analysed, then placed in a theoretical context and used to answer the research question. Based on the results, it was found that fashion inspired by microtrends often carries the characteristics of fast fashion, which has a negative impact on sustainability within the fashion industry. This was complemented by the finding that members of Generation Z show a desire for sustainable practices when dealing with microtrend-inspired fashion.
Internet aesthetics
Mihely, Valentina ; Moravcová, Hana (advisor) ; Ježková, Tereza (referee)
This thesis focuses on the social media trend of #aesthetics, represented by an all- encompassing collection of lifestyle products and values. TikTok - the platform where this style of content came to be, has certain functions, through which it shapes the behaviour of its users, specifically the suppression of one-on-one communication and self expression through personal profiles and preferring the replication of viral content as a form of socialisation. Because of this, it has been speculated that internet aesthetics are used as templates for identity formation in the real world. This has sparked a discourse between social media users which links internet aesthetics, consumerism and postmodern social theory. Therefore, this paper aims to find out whether the popularity of aesthetic content is a result of a postmodern nature of the current society, or it is a mere trend in social media content. The results of this research do not find that aesthetic content serves primarily as an aid for identity formation in individuals showing a postmodern mindset, they did however show that aesthetic content is more popular and more likely to be adapted into the real life by individuals showing a greater degree of postmodern thinking and users of those social media platforms which favour content imitation as a...

Value orientation and emerging generation strategies (X, Y, Z)
Chobotová, Tereza ; Tuček, Milan (advisor) ; Svobodová, Tereza (referee)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the issue of the transformation of values, morals and strategies of the coming generations in the Czech Republic. The work focuses primarily on generations X and Y, marginally then, as an addition, on the simultaneously emerging generation Z. The aim of the work is to describe how generations differ from each other in their approach to values and morality, what strategies they choose and how they change within their lives. Within sociology, concepts of morality, values and strategy are key concepts that are used to study human behavior and society. They thus contribute both to a deeper understanding of the established paradigm in society and facilitate the process of optimization in various fields. They allow industries to respond to the changing demands and demands of the coming generations. Specifically included categories in this work are family relationships and work force. In the theoretical part, the issue is embedded in the scientific literature. This section is devoted to terminology, definition of individual generations, values, morality and strategies. In the practical part, the work builds on the European value research for the Czech Republic from 1991, 1999, 2008 and 2017. Working with data sets from these years is based on a descriptive analysis in the...
