The paper gives a brief overview of the most important phraseological studies and dictionaries published in Italy since the 1980s, when Italian phraseology took the first steps as an independent linguistic discipline. It deals with fundamental theoretical contributions and describes major dictionaries of idioms and proverbs published in the last 40 years. It points also to new trends in Italian phraseography and presents some interesting current projects based on new corpus methodologies.
This article is devoted to the use of the Intercorp parallel corpus in translation theory. In the research selected phrasemes have been used in order to show possibilities of using the parallel corpus in translation. Particular focus has been put on translation equivalence and its criteria with reference to the material from the parallel corpus. Also, the specificity of Czech-Polish and Polish-Czech translation has been described, which provided a context for particular InterCorp resources. The analysis indicated usefulness of the corpus-driven material in the search of adequate translator’s solutions. The article contributes to theoretical analysis related to the role of parallel corpora in the translator’s work

Také byla popsána specificita česko-polského a polsko-českého překladu, který poskytoval kontext pro konkrétní zdroje InterCorp. Analýza ukázala užitečnost materiálu korpusu při hledání vhodných překladatelských řešení. Článek přispívá k teoretickému badání, které ukazuje úlohu paralelních korpusů v práci překladatele.
The article is devoted to applications of the InterCorp parallel corpus in Czech-Polish translation lexicography. Selected phrasemes exemplify possibilities of using a parallel corpus to identify translation counterparts. The examples provided in the article indicate various kinds of limitations which might cause problems in establishing reciprocal equivalence of Polish and Czech phrasemes. The article also describes some advantages and disadvantages of using subtitles, which are well represented in InterCorp, in the process of establishing equivalence. The author used selected phrasemes from Wielki czesko-polski słownik frazeologiczny (Great CzechPolish Phraseological Dictionary), compiled by traditional means without reference to a corpus, as a starting point for the analysis, which demonstrated the value of corpus-based material and tools for creating dictionary entries. The article is a contribution to theoretical research into contemporary directions in the development of translation lexicography.
