Neologisms in fashion
Lišková, Michaela
The article deals with new words in dynamic area of fashion. Neologisms are understood here as neologisms in the narrower sense as well as nonce words. There are presented words related to fashion from the three Czech dictionaries of neologisms (1994, 1998, 2004). Expressions from the open e-dictionary Čeština 2.0 and our own excerpts are added. New inventive expressions are proof of the full-blooded life of the national language and proof of the language creativity of the bearers of the language, and thus become a useful document on the culture of the period. The current Czech dictionary of neologisms is substantially missing.

Hydronymical Map of the Luznice River Basin
HAVRDA, Michal
The main goal of our thesis is a lexicographic processing of names of watercourses in the Upper Lužnice (Ober Lainsitz) river basin. Due to its location on the borders of Czech and German speaking territories and gaps in Czech methodological approaches our thesis is based on sophisticated theories of German hydronomastics that reflect common etymological roots of European water names as well as of the Slovak ones that strive for modern international processing of hydronyms complying with uniformed, obligatory methodology of the lexicographic project Hydronymia Europaea. Water names that were excerpted mainly from archival and contemporary maps have undertaken semantic classification invented by V. Šmilauer and M. Frydrich regardless of the source language. Along with the verification of suitability of the foreign methodology adopted for Czech hydronyms the thesis makes partial advice on its innovation that could help make the using of the lexicon more user friendly.
