In addition to the known data on GNO and INO, coming mainly from English, Italian, and French, it utilizes data from Czech, a Slavic language with rich inflectional morphology, which enables a novel perspective on how these invisible objects are derived in language. I argue against the predominant view that GNO are syntactically pronouns (Rizzi 1986; Authier 1992a,b), consisting of a D-feature and/or a set of ϕ-features (Landau 2010), and possibly receiving case. Evidence is provided that albeit syntactically represented, GNO consist of a single syntactic node, little n, bearing just the interpretable gender feature, but no number or person features. Rather than pronouns with a fully developed nominal functional projection, GNO should be conceived as conceptually impoverished nouns (i.e.

  • Lexeme and Flexeme in a Formal Theory of Grammar
    Chapter 8 Lexeme and flexeme in a formal theory of grammar Olivier Bonami Laboratoire de linguistique formelle, Université Paris Diderot Berthold Crysmann Laboratoire de linguistique formelle, CNRS This paper deals with the role played by the notion of a lexeme in a constraint-based lexicalist theory of grammar such as Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar. Adopting a Word and Paradigm view of inflection, we show how the distinction between lexemes, individuated by their lexical semantics, and flexemes, individuated by their inflectional paradigm, can fruitfully be integrated in such a framework. This allows us to present an integrated analysis of stem spaces, inflection classes, heteroclisis and overabundance. It is often observed by morphologists that contemporary work in theoretical mor- phology has little impact on formal theories of grammar, which on average are content with a view of morphology quite close to that of offered by the post-Bloomfieldian mor- phemic toolkit. A notable exception to this situation is the pervasive use in Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (henceforth HPSG) of the distinction between words and lexemes familiar from Word and Paradigm approaches to morphology (see among many others Robins 1959, Hockett 1967, Matthews 1972, Zwicky 1985, Anderson 1992, Aronoff 1994, Stump 2001, Blevins 2016). In this paper we reevaluate the role of the lexeme in HPSG in the light of 20 years of research, and in particular of recent attempts to inte- grate a truly realisational theory of inflection within the HPSG framework (Crysmann & Bonami 2016). We conclude that current theorizing conflates two distinct notions of an abstract lexical object: lexemes, which are characterised in terms of their syntax and semantics, and flexemes (Fradin & Kerleroux 2003), which are characterised in terms of their inflectional paradigm.

    Title: Comparison of Czech and Russian Declension of Nouns and Adjectives with a Focus on Teaching Czech for Foreigners Author: Mgr. Karel Kulich Department: Institute of Czech Language and Theory of Communication, Faculty of Arts, Charles University Supervisor: PhDr. Jiří Hasil, Ph.D. Abstract: The submitted thesis deals with Czech language as a foreign language in the field of Czech declension system of nouns and adjectives in comparison with the Russian system, and the issue of acquiring these language structures in the target group of Russian-language foreigners. This group of foreigners is a part of a large number of foreign students studying at Czech universities and other schools, so the topic of the paper is highly up-to-date. According to the findings of the linguists, the similarity of language structures may be the cause of the so-called interference errors. In a more general sense, it is the issue of homonymy, which is described, for example, by V. Skalička in connection with the development and termination of declension. In the linguistic comparison, the role of homonymity of desinential morphemes is related to their unequal functional load. The author claims to provide a thorough knowledge of Czech and Russian declension based on comparative study. The goals of the thesis include description of the problems connected with the adoption of the Czech declension at the mentioned target group and recommendation of the selected measures that can be used in the exposition of the curriculum in accordance with the given addressing focus. In the theoretical part of the thesis, the author compares the formal morphology of nouns and adjectives in both languages, with a reminder of the vital importance of functional morphology.

ABSTRACT This paper focuses on describing declension patterns in Old Czech (West Slavonic language, stadium between approx. 1300 and 1500) which is one part of the base serving the automatic annotation of the Old-Czech Text Bank. We introduce our approach to automatic morphological analysis, its principles (historical justifiability, constant regard to system of the language and systematic account of phonological changes) and subparts (a dictionary, a description of patterns, a list of stem changes accompanying declension, rules for sound changes, and the list of exceptions). We also illustrate the process of searching for declension patterns of two feminine declensions in complicated mutual interaction – i-stems and ja-stems. We came to the conclusions that borrowed endings documented in available resources (forms like zem-ech (LOC.PL, combination of ja-stem noun zem-ě (a land) with i-stem ending -ech) are not exceptions; they belong to the system of language and the base for automatic analysis should treat them as such. Key words: Old Czech morphology, declension patterns, automatic text analysis, i-stems, ja-stems. 1. Introduction The aim of this paper is twofold: first, we briefly present a linguistically oriented approach to Old Czech (a West Slavonic language) morphology, which serves for the automatic analysis of Old Czech texts (approx.

  • Adaptation of Foreign Words Into Czech: the Case of Icelandic Proper Names
    _ Marie Novotná Adaptation of foreign words into Czech: the case of Icelandic proper names 1 Introduction Czech is a highly infl ectional language, and the adaptation of for- eign linguistic elements into Czech can pose interesting challenges to translators and to language management in general – a situation not unlike that of Icelandic. The language policy of a nation mirrors both its history and its contemporary social and political situation, and since the aim of this article is to describe the way in which foreign words are rendered in Czech, it is necessary to provide an historical overview of the Czech language with the focus on the transcription and declension of for- eign words in general (Chapter 2). In Chapter 3, the current state of rendering foreign words in Czech – i.e. both loanwords in general and proper names in particular – is described, as well as how this has developed. In Chapter 4, an att empt is made at reviewing the situation as con- cerns words from the foreign language in focus here, i.e. from Icelan- dic. I also provide a short review of translation practices from Old Norse into Czech, while a much more detailed account of that topic is to be found in a recent article, Novotná & Starý (2014). Diff erent characteristics of the original and the target language cause specifi c problems in translations. When using Icelandic and Old Norse words in Czech, the following questions arise concerning Orð og tunga 18 (2016), 111–129. © Stofnun Árna Magnússonar í íslenskum fræðum, Reykjavík. ttunga_18.indbunga_18.indb 111111
