Apart from the phonemic, morfological and lexical systems, the reconstruction of Proto-Slavic language includes also the reconstruction of the original accentuation. The study discusses the prominent theories that have been designed to reconstruct the form of both acute and circumflex accents in Proto-Slavic and use them to explain phonemic alternation in present Czech.

The study discusses the origin of the Glagolitic script using Medieval Slavic texts as material for the reconstruction. Territorially, the old Glagolitic script was first used in The Byzantine Empire, than in Great Moravia (and for a short time in Pannonia), in The Duchy of Bohemia, temporarily in Hungaria and after that in The Kingdom of Bohemia; peripherally alos in Russia and in particular, quite frequently, in White Croatia (especially after the Pope approved its use by the Catholic Church). Afterwards the Glagolitic script was used from the 15th century on in the Abby of Saint-Remi in France. As far as the language is concerned, the script was...

The article deals with a way of reconstruction of several unique Old Czech lexical units from Klaret's Latin-Czech dictionaries. Both their form and meaning are uncertain and their Latin equivalents are hapax legomena, too. The reconstruction has to take into consideration some systemic features of the lexicon, grammatical (i.e. phonological, morphological, syntactic, and word-formative) rules and principles of the semantic development.

The paper describes the Phonological Lexical Corpus of Czech (http://www.ujc.cas.cz/phword) and presents a sample of its analysis. The corpus is a phonologically transcribed database of lexical items from published dictionaries of Czech. Every item contains information about its length (in terms of phonemes and syllables), its syllabification, and phonological properties of the constituent phonemes. Information about the word's part of speech and its presence in various dictionaries is also included. As an example of the usefulness of the corpus, an analysis of the syllabic structure of Czech words is presented on the basis of 49 365 lexical items...

In the study, the author examined the linguistic picture of the death of President Edvard Benes in important Czech periodicals of that era. In articles thematically related to the death and funeral rites of this distinctive and internationally recognized leader of the Czechoslovak national policy, the author verified some of the methods of cognitive linguistics/language picture of the world. The following aspects were considered to be of the highest importance: conceptual metaphor, framing type/categorization, own opposition vs. opposition of the others. The greatest emphasis was placed on exploring stereotypes and political morality (conservative...

The paper deals with the phenomenon of verbal aggression as a specific communicative strategy in interpersonal exchanges, in mass media and in political discourse. It aims at the differences the notions and manifestations of im/politeness, rudeness and verbal aggressivity. In the broader framework of social interaction, aggressive communication occurs in two forms: a/ as a hostile aggression which is impulsive, driven by anger and primarily aiming at harming the target; b/ as an instrumental aggression which is premeditated as a means of retaliation or obtaining some goal (e.g., to boost up speaker's position). The latter seems to be the most frequent...
