Language of Czech Prisoners
ŠVÁBOVÁ, Michaela
The topic of this bachelor's thesis is to approach the prison speech closer to wider society and to try to outline the idea of why prison speech arises and is subsequently used. In the theoretical part, the author will focus on the issue of sociolects and will mention some publications related to the development of criminal language. She will acquaint readers with the prison environment and their language. In the practical part, she will conduct a survey, when she will find out whether people who have never been in prison know or even use some of the words used by Czech prisoners. The aim of the thesis is to present the specific speech of Czech prisoners from the linguistic point of view to wider society and at the same time to contribute a partial probe to the research of nonstandard language.
Word-formation Mechanisms the Student Slang of the Present-Day French
ŠIMKOVÁ, Andrea
This bachelor's thesis on French students' slang aims to create a corpus of expressions used by young people in everyday speech, especially with their peers in a school environment. The thesis is divided into two parts - theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part, I deal with the social stratification of the language, and thus in particular with slang and argot, or ungrammatical sociolects. I then discuss the word-formation devices that can be used to form these slang expressions, both formal and semantic, as well as verlan or javanais. The practical part contains the actual research - the questionnaire is presented, then each question is analysed separately, including graphs of the frequency of expression, and finally an overall summary of the results and the conclusion drawn from it. The thesis also contains a corpus of collected slang expressions with their meanings and Czech translations.
