Distribution of Adjectives and Restrictive Adverbials in Czech and Modern Greek
 Pleskotová, Veronika ; Lehečková, Eva (advisor) ; Křivan, Jan (referee)
This paper deals with the distribution of adjectives and restrictive adverbials in Czech and Modern Greek. In the theoretical part the adjective classification within Czech and Modern Greek literature is presented, followed by the presentation of the scalar approach to adjectives and its basic notions. The second part covers the classification of the restrictive adverbials within Czech and Modern Greek literature. The empirical part consists of a corpus research which constitutes the base for the description of potential changes in the interpretation of adjectives in context of the restrictive adverbials. Follows a suggestion of a possible translation of the combination of adjectives and restrictive adverbials in Modern Greek.

Telicity and scalarity of deadjectival verbs in Czech
 Lehečková, Eva ; Uličný, Oldřich (advisor) ; Filip, Hana (referee) ; Friedová, Mirjam (referee)
The dissertation deals with semantic relations between adjectives and deadjectival verbs in Czech. It focuses on the question how the property scale conveyed by adjectives is encoded in the semantics of deadjectival verbs. After the first chapter which presents the topic of the dissertation, in the second chapter, I describe the theoretical and methodological context of contemporary linguistics from a broader perspective in order to relate the theoretical and methodological procedures present in this paper to the current linguistic development. The third chapter pursues the semantics of adjectives in Czech and various approaches to their classification. It presents a scalar classification of adjectives according to which adjectives denote a scale of some property, i.e. an ordered set of degrees along a dimension. With support of empirical research (based on a questionnaire survey and corpus data) I show that it is possible to implement the scalar model into the description of Czech adjectives. This approach states that adjectives are one of many means in language that serve to express measurement (and attribute it to objects and individuals). At the end of the chapter, I propose a classification of Czech adjectives and generalize prototypical semantics of adjectival classes by vector constructions...
