The participle constructions from a comparational point of view using the example of Günter Grass' translations as a case study
Novotný, Tomáš ; Tichák, Viktor (advisor) ; Hejhalová, Věra (referee)
The contrastive analysis of the free participle I-phrases in German and their translation equivalents in Czech comprises the core of this bachelor's thesis. The introduction highlights the reasons for the choice of the theme, explains the goal of the thesis and provides description of its individual parts. The description of the key attributes of the free participle I-phrases in German and the transgressives of simultaneity in Czech constitutes the majority of the theoretical part. Their common attributes are then used to show their semantic proximity. The methodology highlights the means and procedures used in the individual parts of the analysis. The quantitative analysis consists mainly of the numeral comparison of the phrase types and word forms from the analysed sample, that occur as equivalent forms within the translations of the chosen three books from Grass. In addition to that the decline in use of the free participle Iphrases and the transgressives of simultaneity within the analysed sample is also discussed here. The qualitative analysis shows the equivalence of all the different types of translation from the analysed sample with the original forms using a wide range of paraphrases and explanations. At the end the results of the analysis are summarised and compared with the initial statement of...

Kursikova, Anastasia ; Tichák, Viktor (advisor) ; Dovalil, Vít (referee)
The core of this bachelor thesis is an empirical study of seven selected English expressions in German-language advertising, between the years 2000 and 2021. The empirical study is based on a survey. The introduction explains the choice of the topic and describes the course and goal of the work. In the first, theoretical part, all the necessary terms on the subject of English borrowings in the German language are explained and the basic principles of advertising are characterized. In addition, some studies that were previously conducted on a similar topic are cited. The methodological part illustrates the means and procedures used in each part of the analysis. In the practical part of this work, survey results are collected and analyzed. The analysis consists of two parts. In the first, qualitative analysis, the respondents' answers are written down and analyzed semantically. The second, quantitative, provides concrete charts and statistics, also based on respondents' specific answers. In the concluding part of the work, the results of the study are summarized, and the resulting theses are developed. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Initially, the source text is analysed according to Christiane Nord's method (Nord 2009). The actual translation follows. The annotation comes after it. This part of the thesis focuses on the translation method used, translation problems, and the typology of translation shifts which are a means of preserving the core meaning of the source text during the translation process.

The participle constructions from a comparational point of view using the example of Günter Grass' translations as a case study
Novotný, Tomáš ; Tichák, Viktor (advisor) ; Hejhalová, Věra (referee)
Within my bachelor's thesis I concern myself with the analysis of transgressives and nonattributive participles. In the theory section I indicate their key attributes, from which follow the common features between the individual forms, which form the basis of my initial thesis. In the methodology section I describe the means and methods used during the individual analyses. In the first analysis I try to find out in a contrastive way, if there is a one hundred percent overlap between specific transgressive forms and specific participle forms and in case there is not I try to establish the possible reasons for an overlap between transgressives and the other forms. Moreover I try to figure out, being inspired by the model from Emil Dvořák, whether there is a visible decline in use of the transgressives, whose number I calculate by means of the second analysis. After the analysis section I evaluate the findings made within the both analyses and describe what it implies. In the end I summarize the results and bring my thesis to a close.

Genitive and Dative Government of Selected German Prepositions from a Corpus Linguistic Perspective
Stehlik, Dijana ; Hejhalová, Věra (advisor) ; Tichák, Viktor (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the topic of the variation in genitive and dative government. The subject of analysis are the following thirteen prepositions: (an)statt, innerhalb, längs, mangels, mittels, trotz, während, wegen, zugunsten/zu Gunsten; binnen, dank, laut, zufolge. The aim of the thesis is to capture the use of the mentioned prepositions as detailed as possible. The focus is on the question and the attempt to determine in which cases within the variation in prepositional case government in the written language one or the other case is preferred and whether certain tendencies or systematics common to all thirteen prepositions can be followed. The prepositions are analysed by means of nine selected sources (both dictionaries and grammar books) and German reference corpus.

Gallicisms in German: a Corpus-Based Study
Drobník, Ondřej ; Hejhalová, Věra (advisor) ; Tichák, Viktor (referee)
(English): The topic of this bachelor thesis is the orthography of French lexicon in contemporary German. Selected gallicisms were subjected to quantitative corpus analysis, whose output is not only the frequency list of lexemes, but also a list of spelling variants of individual words. The results obtained were analyzed in two steps. The first step was to trace the most common spelling variations compared to the codified forms. The most common deviations were: preservation of French spelling (e. g. Bohème), degemination (e. g *aktuel; almost always as defective spelling) and writing without accents (e. g. Chateau). In the second step, a hundred of the most frequent gallicisms showing spelling variations were compared with two German reference lexicographic pieces - the DUDEN-Online and the DWDS dictionaries. This part of the thesis found that the two dictionaries (even proportionally) copy very closely the language usage. There was also a lexicon with French spelling, which is in most cases reserved for specific macaronic collocations (e. g. Grande Armée, en détail).
