Vrecionová, Daniela ; Obstová, Zora (advisor) ; Štichauer, Pavel (referee)
The present thesis examines culinary and food-related phrasemes in Italian and Czech respectively. The first part of this paper sets the theoretical framework providing an insight into both the Czech and the Italian terminology and an overview of phraseology and figurative speech. Furthermore, the most important Czech and Italian current phraseography is looked into. The main objective of the second section of the thesis is to provide a clear categorization of the phrasemes firstly based on their semantic features and secondly based on their key cuisine-related component. The thesis also adopts a comparative method in order to explore any differences and similarities between the two languages. The results are compiled into a list of Italian phrasemes and their Czech equivalents attached to this thesis. Finally, the possible correlations between the examined phrasemes and the culinary culture of both countries are explored. KEYWORDS phraseology, phrasemes, gastronomy, metaphore, Czech, Italian
