Course objectives
It is expected to further develop students’ communicational skills in Russian putting emphasis on removal of obstacles caused by Czech-Russian interference in grammar and vocabulary. The whole semester is focused on the verb as the inflectionally richest part of speech, the relations of the verb government and the word semantics. Exercises are focused on Russian prefix verbs and are arranged according to increasing complexity: the explanation of the meaning, the multiple choice, understanding of stylistic applicability, problematic syntactical verb patterns. The module is drawn up as a confrontation of Czech and Russian so that the special emphasis is put on the phenomena different from the native tongue as well as interference phenomena. The great attention is paid to phraseological issue: acquire Russian phraseology by the Czech speaker, universal and national specific thematical blocks in phraseology, translatable and untranslatable, and their integration into communication cycle, antonymic and synonymic relations in phraseology. Phraseology overview: the emphasis is put on understanding the translated text as the unit with functional and stylistic as well as intertextual connections and relations, but also with individual author’s specifics of using phraseology.
The module also provides the students with the information about the Russian cultural realia, introduces the students to the certain new aspects of Russian language culture, includes reading and translating original Russian artistic and special texts.
