Verbal -ing forms: their functions and translation counterparts
Čepelíková, Monika ; Šaldová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Malá, Markéta (referee)
The present thesis focuses on the verbal -ing forms in the written language and their Czech translation counterparts. The theoretical part describes the morphologic and the syntactic features of the verbal -ing forms, their basic distinctions and a brief description of complex condensation, which is a result of the use of non-finite verb forms in both languages. The aim of the practical part is to analyze the use and the functions of verbal -ing forms in modern English fiction and the Czech translation counterparts: each of the two original texts will be compared with its two different Czech translations published in the intervals from early 1930's to 2004. The analysis presents a brief description of the development of modern Czech translation approaches to English verbal -ing forms, the common tendencies and individual translation solutions in contemporary Czech translations.
