Japanese Character Description
Holáň, Jakub ; Zámečníková, Eva (referee) ; Horáček, Petr (advisor)
The Japanese language has from historical reasons a very complicated orthographical system based on more interconnected alphabets where the characters can be logograms (characters representing whole words) as well as phonograms (characters representing single sounds or syllables of a language). When searching or compiling a japanese dictionary various nontrivial methods of sorting these characters have to be used, e.g. sorting them by number of strokes or by radicals (basic building elements of a character). The aim of this thesis is to find an ideal database structure to accurately describe japanese characters and relationships between them. For good measure, a demonstration application has been developed, which can be used as a learning and revision tool for japanese students. The application is intended for internet use and it has been put together using the most up to date web technologies, such as Google Web Toolkit and Java servlets.

The problematics of the false beginner in French as a foreign language learning/teaching
Markalousová, Barbora ; Klinka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Biegel, Madeleine (referee)
This thesis will address the special problem of learning and teaching at the level of a false beginner in French. The text will be divided into two parts, a theoretical part and a practical part. In the theoretical part, we will define the specific term of false beginner, furthermore, we will classify it according to the language level in the European Framework of Reference and I will focus on several points of view on this issue. In the theoretical part we will also describe the learning process from the didactic perspective, from the psycholinguistic perspective and from the perspective of the functioning of the two hemispheres of our brain, in other words, from the neurolinguistic perspective. According to these perspectives, we suggest several types of exercises, games and various other activities that could be beneficial for a false beginner. In the practical part, I then analyse data from my survey, which focuses on students of French language courses at the "false beginner" level and professionals in the Czech Republic and in France. The aim of the work was to define the false beginner with his/her characteristics, to classify him/her within the European Framework of Reference, and to find out how to work with him/her from a didactic point of view, and whether the work is similar to that...

GONZÁLEZ GARCÍA, Ana Isabel
The aim of this paper is to analyse the discourse markers used by the first digital native generation in the WhatsApp chat platform, to demonstrate their deviation from the oral to the written plane and their application in the Spanish as foreign language (ELE) classroom. To this end, a presentation of the key theoretical bases and fundamental linguistic concepts for the understanding of this phenomenon will be carried out; subsequently, a corpus of discourse markers obtained from chat conversations carried out by young people between 20 and 29 years old will be presented, studied, and analysed, and a didactic unit for the use and assimilation of these markers in the ELE classroom will be presented, studied and analysed.

Toward issue toponyms in selected area
DIVIŠOVÁ, Kristina
The bachelor thesis is divided into a theoretical part and a practical one. The theoretical part contains general questions of two linguistic disciplines - onomasticts and toponomastics. At first, the thesis is based on the characteristics of the onomastic discipline, its history, division into subfields and its functions. The toponomastic discipline is elaborated in a similar way. In addition, attention is also paid to geographical proper nouns. The practical part is divided into two parts, both having the same goal - to pinpoint the development of toponyms, especially urbanonyms and, based on the theory, to perceive marginally the issues of these disciplines. The first chapter of the practical part is focused on the small town of Hrotovice and the second one on the town of Třebíč. Old maps as well as chronicles were used for the research. In the case of Hrotovice, the method of an interview was also used.
