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.

Homonymy or semantic differentiation?
Janyšková, Ilona
2020 - Czech
The article deals with the question of whether Czech chytat ,to catch, grabe, také’ and Russian dialectal chitát’ ,to swing, wobble, waddle’ originated from a common Proto-Slavonic base by semantic differentiation, or whether they are genetically unrelated homonyms. Článek řeší otázku, zda české chytat ,uchopovat, brát’ a ruské nářeční chitát’ ,kývat, viklat, houpat, kolébat’ vznikly sémantickou diferenciací ze společného praslovanského základu, či zda se jedná o geneticky nepříbuzná homonyma.

Between Morphology and Word-formation: the Grammatical Category of Number in Toponyms
Štěpán, Pavel
2019 - Czech
The paper deals with the specific functions of the grammatical category of number in Czech toponyms. As proper nouns form a specific sphere of the language, also their grammatical categories may display differences from the core of the lexicon. In many toponyms the plural ending does not fulfil the usual role of the grammatical ending, for it does not express the plurality or the multiple character of the object (e.g. the fact that the object consists of several parts). The use of the plural ending is merely analogical in many toponyms, the analogy is based on mechanical imitation of the form of other toponyms. In these cases the plural ending functions rather as a derivative word-formation suffix than a mere grammatical ending. On the other hand, in some toponyms the grammatical function of the plural ending is still kept. The decisive criterion for the detection of the function of the plural ending is based on the details of the given naming act. Příspěvek se zabývá specifickými funkcemi gramatické kategorie čísla u českých toponym. Vzhledem k tomu, že propria vytvářejí specifickou vrstvu jazyka, i jejich gramatické kategorie mohou vykazovat jisté odlišnosti. U mnoha toponym plurálové zakončení neplní svou obvyklou úlohu pouhé gramatické koncovky, protože nevyjadřuje pluralitu nebo vícečetný charakter objektu (např. skutečnost, že objekt sestává z více částí). Užití plurálového zakončení je u mnoha toponym analogické, analogie je založena na mechanickém napodobení formy jiných toponym. V těchto případech plurálové zakončení plní spíše funkci derivačního slovotvorného sufixu než úlohu pouhé gramatické koncovky. U některých toponym je však gramatická funkce plurálové koncovky zachována. Rozhodující kritérium pro rozpoznání funkce plurálového zakončení je založeno na vyhodnocení podrobností daného propriálně pojmenovacího aktu.

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.
