Guidelines
Cílem práce je zjistit, jaký typ nominální reference je obzvláště problematický pro české pokročilé studenty angličtiny. Teoretická část popíše systém vyjadřování reference substantiv v angličtině za použití členů a dále shrne dosavadní výzkum užívání a chyb v užívání členů u studentů angličtiny jako cizího jazyka. Problematičnost v užívání členů bude stanovena na základě analýzy chyb v užívání členů v chybově označkovaném korpusu žákovské angličtiny LINDSEI_CZ.
Práce bude vypracována v anglickém jazyce.
