| Guidelines |
| Prostudujte relevantní literaturu a vypracujte přehled dosavadních nálezů o souvislé řeči v angličtině, s důrazem na vázání.
Zpracujte nahrávky 16 mluvčích (8 britské, 8 americké) angličtiny z politických debat. Analyzujte vázání pomocí detailního poslechu, vzhledem k přízvučnosti a gramatické kategorii slov. Porovnejte obecné i individuální tendence v obou skupinách mluvčích. Práce bude vypracována v anglickém jazyce. |
