K potenciálnej variantnosti číslovkových tvarov dvojstý, dvestý
On the Potential Variation of the Forms of the Numerals Dvojstý (Codified), Dvestý (Uncodified)

Summary/Abstract: In the article the author focuses on two pairs of ordinal numerals, namely dvojstý (codified) – dvestý (uncodified) and dvojtisíci (codified) – dvetisíci (uncodified). The main goal is to assess whether the given pairs could be classified as lexical variants. The mentioned pairs are therefore analyzed on the basis of corpus data in terms of their frequency and collocation. Morphematic and word-forming segmentation of the analyzed expressions and focus on selected types of denumeral derivatives (numerical nouns, multiple ordinal numerals) and the frequency analysis of derivatives and composites with the forms dv-oj-, dv-e- a dv-a- are presented in the article too. Based on the corpus and word-formation analyses the author then summarizes the facts that can be perceived as those supporting the variability of the mentioned expressions, and, on the contrary, those that are against this variability.
