| Popis: | This thesis aims to describe and clarify the way sound is expressed in language. This is achieved by analysis of bird names motivated by their vocalization. The thesis is conceived from the onomasiological point of view where the starting point of the analysis is the referent to be named. In the theoretical part of the thesis, onomasiology and Lakoff's Idealised Cognitive Model are described. Analysis of the bird names is carried out in within the particular ways in which sound is coded in language. The resulting data are quantified and interpreted. |
