How to count nouns in Czech: Remarks on the category of number
ABSTRACT: The present contribution deals with the grammatical category of number in Czech
nouns. On the basis of empirical investigation, we propose the introduction of a new semantic
distinction within the forms of nouns, namely the distinction of a simple quantitative meaning
versus a pair/group meaning. There are nouns in Czech that typically refer to a pair or to a (commonly encountered) group of entities, not merely to a large amount of these entities (e.g. ruce
‘arms’, vlasy ‘hair’, or sirky ‘matches’). These nouns are combined with set numerals rather than
with the basic ones. In the paper, we argue that the above mentioned subcategorization is grammaticalized. A brief outline of the expressions of the pair/group meaning in Czech as compared
to some other languages (German, English, Slavonic) is also provided.
Key words: grammatical category of number, singular, plural, pair/group meaning, nouns, numerals
Klíčová slova: gramatická kategorie čísla, singulár, plurál, souborovost, substantiva, číslovky

Diskurzní ironie v českém jazykovém prostředí
DOMINIKA POSPÍŠILOVÁ – EVA FILIPPOVÁ
Discourse irony in Czech
ABSTRACT: Discourse irony has recently served as a useful tool for studying the socio-cognitive
and socio-communicative underpinnings of communication. Yet, the abundance of its usage across
cultures makes the study of its occurrence in everyday discourse a worthwhile undertaking in its
own right. The present study examines how Czech speakers (N=54) perceive irony in its different
forms and identifies some linguistic characteristics of its usage in Czech. The findings point to
important parallels between the usage of irony in Czech and Anglo-American discourse. However,
the study also identifies important cultural specifics in the forms of irony gathered from our group
of respondents. Respondents tended to mark linguistic categories carrying the core meaning as those
likely stressed by an ironist. Consultations with two Czech language corpora failed to confirm
that the meaning of irony rests on the emphasis placed on linguistic modifiers. Our findings lead
to culture- and context-relevant conclusions about the overt reflective aspects of irony identified
by Czech speakers.

Jazyková regulace jako věc dohody
Language regulation as a matter of agreement
ABSTRACT: This article, a review of Václav Cvrček’s book on language regulation and the Concept
of Minimal Intervention (2008), focuses on four main issues. (1) For the most part, Cvrček deals
with linguists’ intervention into language. He pays little attention to the intervention of individuals
in real interactions. (2) In Cvrček’s opinion, linguists should not present the public with prescriptive
codifications, but rather, with descriptive ones. However, there is a more important difference between
a reference book, which is presented and/or perceived as an instruction for language behavior, and
a hypothetically exhaustive description of a language or its varieties which is neither presented nor
perceived as instructive. (3) The authors find the definitions of the concepts of “real” and “declarative” attitudes very problematic. (4) Language norms are wrongly equated with the declarative attitudes of speakers towards their language. However, language norms can be neither inferred solely
from usage nor reduced to usage. Rather, they consist of language users’ awareness of the language
and its usage, or a set of features of regularly used linguistic means and their combinations. Finally,
the authors suggest several specific points which Czech linguists should agree upon before implementing possible regulatory changes into practice.
Key words: Theory of Interventions, Concept of Minimal Intervention, literary/standard language,
variety with high communicative functions, language usage, language norm, codification, corpus
Klíčová slova: teorie intervence, koncept minimální intervence, spisovný jazyk, varieta s vyššími
