Nářeční pojmenování velkého kusu chleba

100%
EN
A large piece of bread is an object for which the literary language has no specific name, nevertheless a varied collection of terms can be found in dialects. Most often, metaphoric names motivated by form (e.g. kopyto) or size (e.g. špalek) occur in the collection, then terms with the motivational aspect “separated part” (e.g. závalec). In some words, the motivational aspects mingle. The effort to express the large size of the object leads to the fact that many terms are expressive, above all the augmentatives. The collection of dialect names denominating a large piece of bread is richly differentiated on the lexical, word-formational and phonological level. A simplified depiction of the geographical distribution of the observed dialect expressions can be found on the map included in the article.

Names of Wells in Moravia and Silesia Small water sources mostly of natural origin, situated in open landscape, represent special onymic objects within the category of hydronyms. In the corpus of minor place names of Moravia and Silesia, the names of the water sources are quite numerous. In their formation, various ways are used, e. g. toponymization (Žydelek – from žydelek ‘small fountain’), derivation (Smrďačka from smrdět ‘to stink’), composition (Bolibřuška from bolet ‘to pain’ and břuch dial ‘stomach’), borrowing or adaptation of foreign toponyms (Landek). The material contains mainly one-word and two-word names without preposition (Svatá voda ‘holy water’). The names are motivated mostly by position (Pod Kněhyňu ‘below Kněhyňa’), quality (Sirkovica ‘sulphur water’), and relation of the denominated object to a person (Břouškova studánka ‘Břoušek’s well’). Collected material contains many dialect forms (Belík, Kadlúbek, Koráb etc.). Etymological explanations of most names are transparent, the folk explanations are to be taken critically.
