    Posuny ve zdvořilostních strategiích v současné české společnosti
    (Komisja Slawistyczna PAN, Oddział w Poznaniu, IFS UAM, Wydawnictwo PRO, 2013-02) Chejnová, Pavla
    The presented article deals with communicative and politeness strategies chosen by Czech native speakers. The method of the research was a discourse completion test; data collected in 2003 and 2011 were compared. Several situations (forms of addressing, thanks, apologies) were presented to the informants, their task was to write down a spontaneous reaction. In relation to Hofstede´s dimensional model several observations were made: power index is getting smaller in formal communicative situations, the use od academic titles declines. There is a rising tendency to individualism and competition, speakers often violate modesty maxim, express their needs and emotions more openly. However, the low tolerance of uncertainty does not allow those tendencies to be manifest in formal situations where there is a great risk of face loss, in formal situations speakers prefer stereotypical formulas and chose indirect strategies.

    Psané podoby přejatých slov
    (Komisja Slawistyczna PAN, Oddział w Poznaniu, IFS UAM, Wydawnictwo PRO, 2013-02) Svobodová, Diana
    The article focuses on the problem of graphic adaptation of new foreign loan- words (namely anglicisms) and their varied forms used in the contemporary Czech language. The author concentrates on several selected types of lexemes with the help of their evaluation by the youth aged 12 to 18 years, and comments on the linguistic character of their forms (standard or substandard, semantically modified, stylistically symptomatic etc.).
