Common Nouns denoting a Larch Tree in Non-Settlement Place Names in Bohemia
Zirhutová, Martina
The paper deals with the use of the common noun modřín (larch) and its dialectal variants in non-settlement place names in Bohemia. The focus of the research is to find out which dialectal words denoting a larch tree are included in the names, and to state their number, geographical occurrence and other characteristic features. Attention is paid not only to the common nouns which are used in non-settlement names frequently (verpán, merfán, modřín, břím, dřín), but also to the dialectal words which appear in names rather scarcely (lerpán, relpán, tis, klenč, skřivánčí).
