Abstracts

EN

The article first reviews works on stress placement in initialisms in Czech. It then proceeds to analyze 50 examples of pronunciation of the initialism ODS (Občanská demokratická strana) as represented in the DIALOG corpus; 45 examples of the pronunciation of various initialisms obtained from Czech Television field research in, for instance ÖMV (Österreichische Mineralölverwaltung) and ČTK (Česká tisková kancelář); and 3000 examples of the pronunciation of initialisms from the Database of loanword pronunciation variants, e.g. EU (Evropská unie) and DVD (Digital versatile disc). The analysis focusing primarily on the distribution of stress showed that speakers typically used two stresses — one on the first and one on the last syllable, or only one stress on the first syllable. The latter usage generally prevailed.
