Abstracts

Though the political changes at the end of the 20th century have enabled the publishing of religious literature, the usage of capital letters in religious contexts has remained an open topic in Czech linguistics. Unfortunately, there is insufficient codification concerning this matter, even though there is a relatively stable need for it. This contribution is focused on the usage of capital letters in Jewish festivals and holidays against the background of general principles of usage of capital letters in Czech, and is based on existing handbooks and dictionaries as well as corpora.
