Convergent and Divergent Tendencies in the Word Formation of Contemporary Croatian and Serbian Language Standards
Košař, Matěj ; Jirásek, Karel (advisor) ; Stranjik, Helena (referee)
The topic of the thesis is convergent and divergent tendencies in the word formation of the contemporary Serbian and Croatian language standards and the current state of variant or divergent phenomena between the two standards. The frequency and dynamics of the use of selected noun, adjective and verbal word forms is interpreted on the basis of data captured in language corpora. The inspiration for this research was the application of a similar approach in corpus research of Czech grammar. The aim of this paper is to determine the current real state of the investigated suffixes in contemporary Croatian and Serbian standard languages. Since different sub-researches require different research approaches, the purpose is also to verify the suitability of the selected procedures and data sources. The proposed procedures may also be one of the first similar contributions to the corpus-based investigation of Croatian and Serbian word formation. The work may become a suggestion for the way of creating future language handbooks, focusing especially on the differences between Serbian and Croatian language standards, but also a suggestion for thinking about their form, since on the basis of the results found it is rarely possible to completely exclude a particular phenomenon from one or the other language...
Occurrence and usage of variable declension endings of nouns in the contemporary Croatian language
Košař, Matěj ; Jirásek, Karel (advisor) ; Stranjik, Helena (referee)
The thesis deals with the occurrence and use of variable declination endings in the contemporary Croatian language. Apart from the summary of occurrence of these variable endings found in grammar books and dictionaries of the Croatian language, the gathered information from them is afterwards compared with actual situation of Croatian language as they are mentioned in language corpus. This research was conducted by using a similar method applied in research of the Czech grammar. The aim of the thesis was to assess to what extent the real linguistic description corresponds with the real state of the contemporary Croatian language; whether the presented variable endings are reciprocally equivalent and if and how is their use conditioned in general. The thesis also considers how is the variable declination endings of nouns described in currently accessible grammar books of Croatian language for foreigners. The errors found in the descriptions of this phenomenon in literature, which is the base for learning a foreign language, and the author's personal experience were a significant motivation for writing this thesis. The method used in this thesis can be considered as a modest suggestion for the future handling of disputable areas of Croatian morphology in the grammar books of Croatian language.
