English present perfect and its Czech translation counterparts
Losmanová, Milena ; Malá, Markéta (advisor) ; Brůhová, Gabriela (referee)
This bachelor thesis describes the meanings of the English present perfect and the factors leading to identification of the specific meaning in a given sentence. Czech translations of English sentences are used as indicators of the meaning. The analysis is based on 100 examples of the English present perfect and their Czech translation counterparts excerpted from the InterCorp paralel corpus. The Czech counterparts have been analysed especially with respect to the verbal categories of time and aspect (vid) as well as the temporal adjuncts. Apart from the syntactic-semantic features of verbs, the context factors of the English sentences that may influence the perfect (adverbials of time, method of incorporation of the present perfect into multiple sentence etc.) have been analysed. The aim of this thesis is to answer the question posed by Vilém Mathesius whether there is a correspondence between the perfect tense and the pefective aspect in Czech. Key words: present perfect, Czech aspect
