Diploma thesis "The Lachian of Óndra Łysohorsky as a Microlanguage" deals with literary lachian, a microlanguage, created by the poet Óndra Łysohorsky (own name Ervin Goj) and based on the upper Ostravice dialects. This language should be an attempt to create a new standard language for speakers of lachian dialects. However, the broader public did not accept it and with the exception of a short period at the end of the 30th years of the 20th century Óndra Łysohorsky was the only person, who wrote poems in lachian. It is therefore rather unique poetic idiolect. The language of Łysohorsky's poetry has not yet been explored in detail, systematic grammatical descriptions are completely lacking. The aim of this thesis is to provide a description of the morphology of this unique linguistic phenomenon. For this purpose it was created the lachian language corpus, which contains the vast majority of lachian poetic texts. A language corpus allows a more detailed elaboration of the language material, therefore it was possible to try to sort grammatically all the vocabulary of literary lachian. Each of the paradigmatic types is followed by the list of all the words (which we can determine) inflected according to this declination or conjugation model. Besides the morphological description the thesis tries to...

(in English): The topic of the present thesis is the lexical aspects of Cuban Spanish, primarily the influence of other languages on its vocabulary. The theoretical part is dedicated to the historical and cultural circumstances of the history of the Cuban variant of Spanish, it briefly outlines the evolution of the Cuban lexicography and, most importantly, it pays attention to the impact of other languages: Spanish of the conquerors, Indian languages, African languages, French, English, Chinese and Russian on Cuban lexis. In addition, a short part of the thesis is dedicated to the sociolinguistic situation in Cuba. The theoretical background serves as the basis for the practical part of the thesis, in which the occurrence of selected lexical items in the linguistics corpora CREA, CORPES XXI and Araneum Hispanicum Maius is examined.

Die Dissertation besteht aus zwei Teilen, einer Edition der Akten Amt Römhild Nr. 319, 320, 321 und 323 aus dem Thüringischen Staatsarchiv Meiningen und der Beschreibung des Textsorte "Urbar" am Beispiel der in den Akten enthaltenen Urbare. Beiden Teilen geht ein Abschnitt voraus, in dem die Editionsprinzipien und der textlinguistische Forschungsansatz diskutiert und begründet werden. In der Textsortenbeschreibung werden Situation, Struktur sowie Textfunktion, Textthema und Textinhalt der Henneberger Urbare untersucht. Unter der Überschrift "Situation" werden die Urbare vorgestellt. Beschrieben wird der historische, geografische und dialektgeografische Kontext sowie die äußeren Merkmale; die Überlieferungs- Wirkungsgeschichte, Kommunikationspartner und der Handlungsbereich der Urbare werden erschlossen. Wortschatz, Satzbau und Textaufbau der Urbare werden im Kapitel "Struktur" untersucht. Im Kapitel "Textfunktion, Textthema und Textinhalt" wird der Frage nachgegangen, welche Schreiberintentionen aus den Quellen zu erschließen sind, was das Thema der Urbare ist und mit welchen Inhalten dieses Thema gefüllt wird. Im Editionsteil werden die Editionsgrundsätze dargelegt. Beschrieben wird der Aufbau der Edition, die Umsetzung der Handschrift in Maschinenschrift und der Aufbau des Apparates. Abgeschlossen wird die Arbeit durch die Edition der Akten. / My PhD thesis consists of two parts, the one being an edition of the acts "Amt Römhild" nr. 319, 320, 321 and 323 deposited in the Thuringian State Archive in Meiningen, the other a description of the text type "urbar" as based on the urbars contained in the acts.

The dynamics of Southern Carpathian dialects - abstract The aim of this work is to describe the development of Southern Carpathian dialects in two state entities, in northeastern Slovakia and the Transcarpathian region of Ukraine, in the last 70 years. Starting material are recordings of dialectal speech and their transcription obtained in own field research conducted since 2011 within the studied area, especially in villages located close to the Slovak-Ukrainian state border. The focus of this work is a description of the dynamics of the phonetic, morphological and lexical system of the dialects of two villages, Ublya, which was chosen due to the long tradition of dialect research, and Malyi Bereznyi, the nearest neighboring village on the territory of Ukraine. Here until World War II closely related Southern Carpathian dialects had been developing in the same sociolinguistic conditions. After World War II they were separated by the Czechoslovak- Soviet border and came under the influence of different standard languages - Slovak, on the one hand, and Ukrainian and Russian on the other hand. A comparison of older material with the results of our field research enables to observe a dialectal divergence caused by leveling processes oriented to different standard languages. Data obtained in Ublya and Malyi...

This study, called Dialect caipira, deals with one of the dialect of Brazilian Portuguese language, its historical and sociological formation and its linguistic characteristics. The first chapter contains the interpretation of dialect and dialectology in line with studies undertaken in this area. It represents the evolution of dialectological research from neogrammarians until today. It includes theory of variability of William Labov, who departs from the traditional synchronous approach to language as it was a homogeneous subject of study, and carries out researches, which include variable use of language and its linguistic, stylistic, and social determinants. According to Chambers and Trudghill are introduced social strata with which we encounter in the study of language, and which have in some circumstances, the general tendency to use certain styles of speech. At the end of the first chapters are set out terms that will be used during the work. The second chapter deals with the colloquial Brazilian Portuguese. It outlines the historical formation of the language in Brazil and social factors that influenced it. It represents the emergence of language lingua geral, an artificial language created by Jesuit missionaries for evangelization. This language has been widely used in the first centuries...

La description de l´agni, langue kwa de Côte d´Ivoire, sur la base d´une analyse contrastive de deux de ses parlers (sanvi et djuablin) et la discussion sur une éventuelle élaboration de son orthographe standard faites dans ce travail visent à exposer un certain nombre de problèmes liés à la représentation graphique de phénomènes linguistiques, d´importance majeure dans les activités de la lecture et de l´écriture, propres à cette langue et marqués par les particularités des variantes dialectales. Les suggestions consignées ici, par rapport aux propositions déjà existantesse fondent sur les résultats des différentes analyses menées et tiennent compte des liens qui doivent exister entre les éléments de la langue et leursgraphies. Mais on ne saurait se limiter au travail théorique. Le statut des utilisateurs-locuteurs est tel qu´il importe d´envisager, après coup, coûteque coûte un volet empirique d´une telle entreprise afin de s´imprégner del´applicabilité et de la praticabilité des différentes propositions orthographiques à travers l´évaluation des performances de ces derniers. Notre travail est une contribution au débat actuel sur la codification des langues de ce pays.
