THIS CODE WAS CREATED SPECIFICALLY FOR EXCHANGE STUDENTS.
If you are an exchange student and you need a grade for this course, you should sign up for this code. For more information about the course, click on the link next to "is provided by" above. This course introduces students to the fundamental concepts of grammaticalization theory and provides a foundational understanding of key grammaticalization pathways emerging from both verbal and nominal domains. Special attention is given to identifying early-stage grammaticalization processes in Czech and offering methodological guidance for their analysis. Throughout the course, we will work with spoken Czech data, so a basic passive understanding of Czech is required. Last update: Dogan Barbora, Mgr. et Mgr. (07.01.2026)

Since the course will focus on certain ongoing grammaticalization processes in Czech, students are required to have a basic knowledge of the language, particularly the ability to work with spoken Czech data. Last update: Dogan Barbora, Mgr. et Mgr. (07.01.2026)
