Second part tells about all kinds of prepositions in the Modern Greek language based on scientific grammar books. Prepositions are arranged according to the alphabet based on their types and there is an explanation of its use together with an example from a text from the ETHEG (Εθνικός Θησαυρός Ελληνικής Γλώσσας). In a case of the ancient prepositions based on their frequency and a reason of their preservation, possibly their influence on the preserving cases. The third part is dedicated to the Ancient Greek prepositions and their meanings in this way the contrast of their use between Modern and Ancient Greek is shown.

The Competition of the Dative and the ad + Accusative Construction in Expressing the Addressee in Latin
Knotková, Nela ; Pultrová, Lucie (advisor) ; Mouchová, Bohumila (referee)
The present thesis is concerned with the issue of competition between prepositional expression ad + accusative and unsupported dative case construction in Latin, and on the possible explanations of their usage in expressing the semantic role of the Addressee. Initially, the thesis discusses the wider context of the subject, namely general relation between the case and prepositional system in diachronic perspective, focusing on changes occurring in the spoken variety of Latin and the causes of this phenomenon. Afterwards the thesis presents J. M. Baños' view on the usage of ad + acc. and dative in expressing the Addressee in Classical Latin texts, and a criticism of some of his questionable statements. The last part analyses these expressions based on the occurrences of verbs mittere and scribere excerpted from the chosen corpus (the letters of Cicero and Pliny the Younger), and applies the findings to specify the questionable parts of Baños' interpretation.
