The second part contains a description of particular stages of extracting two-syllable nouns of the žena declension type with vowel alternation present. From the revised results is then created a list of all the nouns containing varying vowel based solely on the data obtained from corpus. This part also aims on verification of various statements from Czech grammars or other publications, which are relating e.g. to the influence of lexical semantics or to phonetic structure of words on the vowel variation.
