Expletive "ne" in Contemporary French
Raisová, Kateřina ; Nádvorníková, Olga (advisor) ; Nováková, Sylva (referee)
This bachelor's thesis is dealing with the expletive ne in Contemporary French. The theoretical part describes the particular use of the morpheme ne (that has no influence on the designation of a sentence) listing the possible contexts in which it can be used. Two main presumptions shape the analysis. First, this phenomenon is an attribute to a higher literary style. Secondly, the expletive ne has the ability to change the meaning of a sentence. The two hypotheses are examined on the corpus material of The Czech National Corpus. In the first phase a comparison of the frequency of the expletive ne is done on four types of texts - novels, journalism, texts from the internet and the film subtitles. It follows that the type of text influences the frequency of expletive ne in the text. However, the novels did not prove to be using it systematically the most. The second phase of the empirical part analyses in details the concrete examples from the french novels both with and without the expletive ne.
The New Orthography of French : Theory and Practice
Hlubučková, Andrea ; Nováková, Sylva (advisor) ; Nádvorníková, Olga (referee)
The bachelor thesis is named The New Orthography of French : Theory and Practice. It talks about a reform of french spelling from the year 1990, and its part is mapping of spelling changes. The theoretical part deals with previous reforms which had been approved in the past by French academy, and it also describes circumstances of origin of the last spelling reform from the year 1990. This part also deals with enforcement of the reformed rules in education and in French speaking countries. Practical part deals with description of realized research which was done among Czech teachers of French language. This research aims to clarify what knowledge the teachers have about the reform and to find out if the teachers follow those rules in teaching. The results of this research are compared with similar research which was done in France. Key words french language, orthography and usage, "new orthography", francophone countries
The issue of past tenses in French (compound past, imperfect tense, past simple) and the methodology of this topic in French textbooks
Niedermaierová, Tereza ; Nováková, Sylva (advisor) ; Nádvorníková, Olga (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on three fundamental past tenses in French language (passé composé, imparfait,passé simple),in the context of their methodology in contemporary French textbooks. The thesis is based on the assumption that their practical use can be problematic for Czech speaking learners, due to the differences between Czech and French language. First it describes the characteristics of the tenses mentioned above and then analyses three selected French textbooks to see how are the tenses presented and practiced. The next part introduces its own proposals for presentation and practices by using authentic documents, result of the previous analyses. Last, but not least this thesis comments on the outcome of a short survey, which was focused on the usage of passé composé and imparfait. The research subsequently confirmed the default assumptions that the past tenses in French are causing problems to Czech speaking learners. Key words: passé composé, imparfait, passé simple, teaching of French, French textbook, past tenses
Adjectives with infinitival complement
Munzarová, Hana ; Nádvorníková, Olga (advisor) ; Nováková, Sylva (referee)
Tato bakalářská práce se zabývá problematikou infinitivních doplnění adjektiv. Jejím cílem je analyzovat fungování atributivní konstrukce être-Adj-Prép-VInf v současné francouzštině a pokusit se vytvořit typologii přídavných jmen, která ji mohou tvořit. První část popisuje různé přístupy, které jsou k této struktuře zaujímány. Nejprve je na ni nahlíženo z hlediska syntaktického, kde je věnována pozornost především funkci jednotlivých konstituentů a tzv. tough-konstrukcím, poté jsou zmíněny některé pojmy zavedené generativní gramatikou. Č ást věnovaná sémantickému přístupu ke konstrukci popisuje méně tradiční způsob třídění přídavných jmen, a následně je v ní představen koncept metonymické kompatibility. Následující část práce je zaměřena na analýzu konkrétních případů. Je popsán postup vyhledávání konstrukce v korpusu InterCorp, z jehož dat je vytvořen reprezentativní vzorek konstrukce. Na základě těchto dat jsou identifikována nejfrekventovanější přídavná jména vyskytující se v konstrukci être-Adj-Prép-VInf. Poslední část práce kombinuje poznatky získané v částech předchozích, a pokouší se vytvořit typologii adjektiv, která mohou do konstrukce vstupovat. Jsou popsány jejich rysy, přičemž odkazujeme na teoretické přístupy z předchozích kapitol. Klíčová slova syntax, adjektiva, infinitiv, paralelní...
Competition between the indicative and subjunctive following verba opinandi in pre-classical and classical French
Lipská, Karolína ; Nádvorníková, Olga (advisor) ; Nováková, Sylva (referee)
The Bachelor thesis deals with the development in the usage of verb modes following verba opinandi in pre-classical and classical French. An evident change in complementation of these verbs had taken place in the 17th century, namely a decrease of the subjunctive to the benefit of the indicative which became a norm in an affirmative sentence in the end of the century. The theoretical part describes this development through information in old and historical grammars. In the practical part the aim is to verify this information on authentic texts in FRANTEXT, a set of French diachronic corpora. This research enabled to create statistics, specify the theoretical information and find a turning point in the development. It also showed distinctions in the indicative/subjunctive ratio between different sentence types.
Politeness Strategies in French and Czech Requests
Paulů, Aneta ; Nádvorníková, Olga (advisor) ; Štichauer, Jaroslav (referee)
The subject of this thesis consists in comparing means of request expression in French and Czech language in pursuit of scaling them by their politeness level, taking into account the socio-pragmatic environment of both languages. Apart from that, a syntactic realisation of request is analysed in both languages as well as morphological, lexical and stylistic instruments that either increase or decrease the degree of politeness and the effect of performed request. Attention is primarily focused on indirect requests in both French and Czech in order to identify an appropriate translation equivalent expressing the same degree of politeness. The fundamental source for the contrastive analysis lies in InterCorp parallel corpus data. This research is further extended with survey that verifies the previous findings.
Adverbials in initial position in French
Fečová, Janka ; Nádvorníková, Olga (advisor) ; Nováková, Sylva (referee)
This thesis provides a complex overview of function of adverbial elements in initial position, with focus on theirs typology and distribution in anteposition in two lingual corpuses - publicistic and literary. Meanwhile analyzes eventual position of these anteponed adverbial elements behind the verb and finally based on quantitative results deduces factors, which influence acceptability of postposition of these adverbial elements. Based on this, it follows their postposition and provides a conclusion with differences in two types of text. In addition, that follows both observation and comparison of combinations of adverbial elements in initial zone in publicistic and literary corpus.
Corpus analysis of French compound infinitive forms
Opletalová, Kateřina ; Nádvorníková, Olga (advisor) ; Štichauer, Jaroslav (referee)
(in English): The aim of this thesis is to describe the functioning of French compound infinitive in comparison with its simple form. Using language corpora, we will cover several textual types - journalism (corpus L'Est Républicain and a part of InterCorp corpus), fiction (corpus InterCorp), but we will also utilize typologically various texts from the Internet (corpus frWac) and a corpus of film subtitles. The theoretical part will describe the infinitives forms in terms of terminology, morphology, and syntax. The empirical part will be dedicated to mapping out the contexts in which the compound infinitive occurs and also to analyzing different factors that affect its aspectual and temporal interpretation. In conclusion, there is a summary as well as possible issues for further research dealing with this topic.
A Corpus of Czech Learners' French: Possibilities of its Building and Exploitation
Stehlíková, Karolína ; Nádvorníková, Olga (advisor) ; Nováková, Sylva (referee)
This work deals with the possibilities of building and exploitation of a corpus of Czech Learners' French. The first part presents the learner corpora in the context of corpus linguistics on the basis of literature and scientific articles relevant to this subject with a special attention for corpora of French L2. Furthermore, the work focusses on the methodological principles of building a learner corpus (e.g. the specific metadata about the respondents and the material) and the error taxonomy. Next section of the work is devoted to analysis of a sample of learner's written productions with a critical description of the error taxonomy.
