EATAW 2021: 11th Conference of the European Association for the Teaching of the Academic Writing: Book of abstracts
Kašpárková, A.; Frančíková, Dagmar; Etchegoyen Rosolová, Kamila
2021 - English The theme of EATAW 2021 was “The residence of writing and writing support.” Academic writing is considered an interdisciplinary field. The activities of academic writing teachers and related research head in many different directions. The conference helped us revisit the foundations, and asked seemingly simple questions: Who are we?, Where do we work?, What is our field?, (How) has academic writing become a field?, How do technologies help us?, Who are other stakeholders in academic writing support? Moreover, our theme explored the essence of our work and professional identity in an unprecedented time of the covid-19 outbreak that had put more things in motion than we could have ever imagined. Therefore, we added the question of: What has changed recently? We felt that some of the questions had been here for decades but may have still been unanswered in certain contexts and/or in contexts that keep changing. The conference was held online on July 7 and 8, 2021, and was organized by VSB-Technical University of Ostrava and the Czech Language Institute, Czech Academy of Sciences. Keywords: academic writing; writing for publication; Czech Republic Available at various institutes of the ASCR EATAW 2021: 11th Conference of the European Association for the Teaching of the Academic Writing: Book of abstracts

Medical Eponyms, Achilles’ Heel of Language Consulting Centre’s enquirers
Mžourková, Hana
2019 - Czech Eponyms are a traditional part of medical terminology. Their specificity consists in the proprial motivation (e.g. Alzheimer’s disease, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome). Especially in several past decades there is undoubtedly an increase of medical terms (and therefore eponyms) in everyday communication. Questions for the correct form of eponyms naturally emerged in lingustically structured database of enquiries, too. The paper focuses on orthographic and morphological aspect that enquirers of Language Consulting Centre have difficulty with and practical use of the resulting language data. Tradiční součástí lékařské terminologie jsou eponyma, specifická svou propriální motivací (např. Alzheimerova choroba, Zollingerův-Ellisonův syndrom). V posledních desetiletích zaznamenáváme nárůst lékařské terminologie (a tedy i eponym) v běžné komunikaci. Dotazy na správnou podobu zápisu eponym se tak přirozeně objevují i v lingvisticky strukturované databázi jazykových dotazů. Příspěvek se zaměřuje na pravopisné a morfologické jevy, které tazatelům jazykové poradny činí obtíže, a zároveň představuje navrhovaná řešení, v neposlední řadě též praktické využití získaných jazykových dat.
