 KRAHULÍKOVÁ, Karolina
This bachelor thesis studies the topic of international homonyms, so-called false friends, in the framework of applied linguistics. This linguistic study is aimed at words that are formally alike in Czech and English, but have a different meaning. This is often caused by the same origin of the two words but different semantic development. The main importance rests in the dictionary part where the origin and usage of one hundred expressions is explained as well as in the practical study focused on Czech students of the English language and their knowledge of Czech?English interlanguage homonyms, which was explored by the method of questionnaire with at least eighty respondents. This linguistic study could be useful for the pedagogical purposes, it may help to explain the different meanings and help students to understand the development of the interlanguage homonyms instead of learning them by heart.
