Verbal periphrases expressing future in Finnish
Střížková, Dominika ; Fárová, Lenka (advisor) ; Lindroosová, Hilkka (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with four periphrastic expressions that can express the future in the Finnish language. In certain cases they can substitute the common use of the present which is useful especially in such sentences where it is not apparent whether the verb in the present form refers to the present or to the future. In this study, I first wanted to find out how these periphrastic verbal expressions are used in Finnish. I also wanted to answer the question under what conditions these expressions can be used or what it is that limits their use. In addition, I used a parallel multilingual corpus to find out how the use of the periphrastic expressions with future meaning differs in the translation language, in other words how the way to express the future in other languages influences Finnish.

French verbal constructions of the type chanter faux
Kekula, Vít ; Štichauer, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Loucká, Hana (referee)
The regular method of forming adverbs in French is by adding the suffix -ment mostly to the feminine form of the adjective from which the specific adverb is formed. Apart from this way of expressing adverbial French does use however a wide variety of different more or less complex tools. One of those tools, which is considered by many to become increasingly common in contemporary French is replacing the adverb in question by an adjective and thus forming a verb construction of the type V+Adj. The main goal of our work will consist in a syntactic analysis of this traditional, dynamic and significantly productive language phenomenon of which nature allow us to make use of various methods of research including surveys and corpus analysis. In our work will focus primarily on adjectives as a specific component of the constructions V+Adj placed after the verb and assuming the role of an adverb. As a conclusion to our analysis we should be particularly able to tell whether the occurrence of these terms does indicate certain rules allowing us either to classify them as adjectives or adverbs, either to "define" a group of its own.
