Linguistics and didactic problems in teaching Czech language to Ukrainian native speakers
PROKIP, Nataliya
The topic of the bachelor thesis is linguistic and didactic problems arising in the teaching of the Czech language for foreign language speakers from Ukraine and Russia. Thus, attention is focused on difficult phenomena in the morphological and lexical plan (including phraseology), or even syntactic. The analysis of language material obtained from practical teaching will provide ideas for solving some problematic sections of grammar. The aim of the bachelor's thesis will be proposals for didactic procedure in the interpretation of selected grammatical and lexical phenomena and some recommendations used to master the curriculum.

Slovak-Czech interlingual homonymy - lexical analysis on the base of Slovak-Czech dictionary (U-Ž)
Fořtová, Eva ; Nábělková, Mira (advisor) ; Šimková, Mária (referee)
The subject of the thesis is the interlingual homonymy between Slovak and Czech, which is a topic that has been paid little attention by the Slovak and Czech linguistics. The fundamental part of the thesis is represented by a mirror dictionary of Slovak and Czech interlingual homonyms, based on The Slovak- Czech dictionary ranging from the letter U to Ž. The thesis is divided into two parts. The first, theoretical part is concentrated more generally on the lexicology and the theory of homonymy, interlingual homonymy, and other paradigmatical relations between lexical units. The second, lexical part is devoted to the principles of making a dictionary; next, it analyses some of the phenomenons that showed up as problematic while making the mirror dictionary of the Slovak- Czech interlingual homonyms.

Use of Sense Relations in Expressing Language Humour: TV Series Analysis
Kopicová, Linda ; Matuchová, Klára (advisor) ; Vít, Radek (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on sense relations, the syntagmatic and the paradigmatic axis, and their use in expressing language humour. The analysis was carried out in a corpus extracted from the TV series Friends and How I Met Your Mother. It strives to answer the question whether the sitcoms display the same number of comical incidences both in the first and the last season. Furthermore, it sheds some light on the linguistic realizations employed and the way they operate to trigger laughter. Finally, the thesis provides an insight into the universal tendencies of humour realizations and their reflection in the amassed data.

The Role of Czech-English Interlanguage Homonyms in Second-language Acquisition
Šupová, Marie ; Lancová, Klára (advisor) ; Jančovičová, Ivana (referee)
This bachelor thesis is concerned with the role of Czech-English interlanguage homonymy in the process of second-language acquisition. The aim is to prove or disprove that the Czech learners are not in general very well acquainted with Czech-English interlanguage homonyms and that various factors heavily influence the depth of their knowledge. The theoretical part provides a brief overview of the synchronic and diachronic development of both the Czech language and the English language, including the influence of the English language on Czech and their mutual history. A further focus is on explaining homonymy and the theory of interlanguage and its influence on second language acquisition. The practical part is based on a questionnaire and attempts to discover whether Czech learners are aware of the phenomenon of "false friends" and the differences between particular instances. Special emphasis is put on the individual factors that impact the learners' command of knowledge, such as depth and quality of knowledge, work or educational experience in an Anglophone country, length of learning English, and frequency of using English. The analysis and evaluation of the results confirmed the hypothesis as valid. KEYWORDS interlanguage, homonymy, second language acquisition, treacherous words

The topic of the following Bachelor thesis is concerned with Russian-Czech interlingual homonymy research within the system of nominal parts of speech (theoretical and practical analysis of the above mentioned languages). In the thesis we give a claffication of interlingual homonyms and analyse the linguistic processes leading to semantic contradictions within the words of the same origin. For fulfilling the tasks stated we use literature written in Russian and Czech. Key words: homonymy, Czech homonymy, Russian homonymy, nominal parts of speech, linguistic process, semantic field, word meaning, comparative method, descriptive method, Czech national corpora, Russian national corpora

Characteristics of the context differentiating homonyms of the same word class (e.g. "bank"," palm") in written language
Šefčík, Dominik ; Dušková, Libuše (advisor) ; Tichý, Ondřej (referee)
Homonyms present considerable difficulties not only for the theoretician of language but also for any lexicographer who aims to adequately represent the state of lexical relations within a language. Mapping the principal causes of fuzziness in understanding homonymy, the present thesis first seeks to systematize the usage of the concept by discussing the two poles that characterize each homonymic pair: the notion of sameness on the one hand and the notion of difference on the other. The theoretical part of the thesis concludes with a brief disputation over the usual practice of subsuming homonymy under the heading of ambiguity. The research project uses ambiguity as a springboard for a detailed three-tier analysis of the homonyms bank and palm. Since the point of convergence of almost any treatment of homonymy is the disambiguating role attributed to context, the principal points that are analysed are all to do with context albeit on various levels of abstraction. The first tier looks at the structure of the noun phrases that contain the analysed homonyms. The second tier expands the understanding of context in order to embrace the whole clause with a view to discovering systemic variation in the type of clause element the examined homonyms tend to occur in. Finally, the third tier analyses the...
