The author carries out an analysis of the Czech verbs of movement, such as: jít/chodit, běžet/běhat, nést/nosit etc. with the use of cognitive methods of linguistics. She investigates different uses of a particular verb which form a radial structure of the prototype.

The author concludes that semantic structures, of the analyzed by her verbs, coincide with several semantic fields.
