Specific Features of Functional Sentence Perspective in Czech of 16th Century (from the Point of View of Contemporary Recipient)
Stránská, Kateřina ; Janovec, Ladislav (advisor) ; Palkosková, Olga (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with specific feature of functional sentence perspective in Czech language of 16th century from the point of view of a contemporary reader. It is divided into two parts, such as theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part focuses on terminological background, which is crucial to know when reading this thesis. There is also a brief history of functional sentence perspective studies in Czech Republic. Other chapter in the theoretical part is also description of Czech language development. It is important to know it because of understanding the tendencies influencing the language in times the translation was written. The practical part targets on finding the specific features in the text with help of manifold examples and suggestions of how it could look today. It focuses on looking up features that could cause understanding or reading trouble to a contemporary reader.

On the use of correlates of German and Czech verbs
Uhlíková, Klára ; Maroszová, Jana (advisor) ; Šemelík, Martin (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the use of correlates of German and Czech verbs. First the theoretical part sums up the knowledge about correlates in form of pronouns es, das, dessen, dem and in form of pronominal adverbs, afterwards the Czech equivalents of correlates called correlativa are described. In both cases attention is payed to forms, functions, obligatoriness, optionality and position of correlates and correlativa. The practical part focuses on the analysis of the concrete language examples from the parallel corpus InterCorp and on the basis of these examples it explore and concludes in which way the use of correlates in German is coincident with the use of correlativa in Czech.

A Contrastive Study of Aspectual Means of Expression in Czech and German Narrative Texts
Žáková, Radka ; Lehečková, Eva (advisor) ; Martínek, František (referee)
The thesis deals with a contrastive study of various aspectual means of expression in Czech and German. First it presents the aspectual systems in both languages as they are described in traditional models of aspectuality. Czech and German express aspectual meanings by different means. Hence a contrastive analysis of both languages is based on a mutual semantic feature of telicity, which constitutes the main semantic opposition in both studied aspectual systems. The analysis focuses on a limited group of Czech and German Incremental verbs. For the Incremental verbs it is characteristic the homomorphism, the relation between event development and manipulation of the object (constitution, termination, modification). Incremental verbs include in their direct object the thematic role of Incremental Patient. The goal of the paper is to present and describe with support of corpus data the relevant means of expression of telicity and other aspectual meanings: the telicity of a verb is determined by verbal semantics, relation between a predicate and its nominal phrase that functions as an Incremental Patient and certain semantic properties of an Incremental Patient. The analysis of aspectual means of expression concentrates on specific linguistic means in both languages. In Czech the category of verbal...

Comparison of Tense System in Spanish and French: the Use of Present Perfect and Past Simple
Jandečková, Eva ; Zavadil, Bohumil (advisor) ; Čermák, Petr (referee)
Comparison of the Tense Systems in Spanish and French: the Use of the Present Perfect and Past Simple This paper is concerned with tenses in Spanish and in French. First they are analysed generally, from the theoretical point of view, and subsequently, the author focuses on comparing the use of two of them: the present perfect and the past simple. The author is building on the conviction that although the verb systems of Roman languages are nearly identical, and also that the basic values of their tenses are identical, their specific uses may differ. First, she examines how tenses participate in the expression of time in language and how they can refer to extralinguistic time. As much attention has been paid to this topic, part one of the paper examines the theories that have been reflected the most in works on Spanish and French verbs. The fact that each of them emphasises a different aspect in explaining the meaning and function of each tense allows us to better understand the fundamental value of the tenses. One chapter is devoted to the diachronic view of the Roman system of verbs which allows us to see which features and development tendencies are common to all Roman languages, and which are only found in some of them. Here, the author points out primarily the fact that the loss of the...

Evaluative prefixes archi-, super-, hyper-, extra- in present-day French
Šindelářová, Jana ; Štichauer, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Duběda, Tomáš (referee)
This work is concerned with using of evaluative prefixes of types archi-, extra-, hyper- and super- in french. The theoretical part concentrates on connecting of these prefixes with different types of words, like nouns, adjectives, adverbs and verbs. We are concerned above all with adjectives, where these prefixes are used when forming an absolute superlative. Further ways of forming an absolute superlative are specified here for comparison with the use of these prefixes. Furthermore, this work examines the use of these lexemes as single standing words. The practical part targets concrete examples of prefix connections archi-, extra-, hyper-, super- with adjectives used by native speakers. The target is to investigate according to which rule these prefixes are connected with adjectives, which one is the most and the least used and if there is any diference in using these prefixes among men and women. Key words: Morphology, word formation, word composition, prefix, evaluative prefix, prefixoid, suffix, noun, adjective, verb, adverb.

Some Problems of Processing Verbs in Dialect Dictionary
Šipková, Milena
The author aims to emphasize the fact that the dialect lexicographer indispensably needs a broad theoretical lexicological skills for his work, i.e. that he sees (realizes/distinguishes) in phonological, morphological and word-formational morphs and morphems (prefixes, sufixes, endings) and in the syntactic behaviour of verbs important signals (indicators) of possible semantic differences. On the other side, it needs to be stressed that it primarily is the word and its meaning that stays in the centre of lexicographer’s attention, and though phonology, morphology, word-formation and syntax are respectable for him, i.e. he must take them into consideration, they, nevertheless, only play a supportive and stimulating role.

Selected Event nouns in "Le Petit Robert" dictionnary
SUCHÁ, Alena
The aim of present work is to summarize and describe theories treating action nominals and to use some of these on a sample of French nouns. The introduction treats the characteristics of action nominals, as well as the question of classification of action nominals in regard of the parts of speech system. The second part mentions main theoretical studies on process of nominalization. What comes next is the summary of nominalization types based on their creation, thus division to action, resultative and other nominals. The third part of present work is the practial one. It describes the method of choosing the sample from the dictionary Le Petit Robert as well as analyses made by means of the said dictionary and the programe SketchEngine.

The analysis of verbal valence in the textbook "Německy s úsměvem"
GRÖSLOVÁ, Hana
The topic of my diploma work is the analysis of verbal valence in the Czech textbook "Německy s úsměvem" ("German with a Smile"). The theoretical part is dealing with the verbal valence first, examining the verb as a part of speech and the valence itself. It deals with grammar from the DaF-point of view (DaF = teaching German as foreign language). The theoretical part is closed by a brief characteristic of exercise typology with selected exercise types for the valence practise. The main point of the work is the analysis of the verbal valence ? excerption, presentation and practice of verbal valence in the selected part of the textbook. The results of individual parts of the analysis are evaluated and statistically processed then. The analysis is followed by the list of problems detected with my own solution.
