Short Forms of Hard-Stem Adjectives in the Contemporary Czech language – the corpus analysis

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyze short forms of adjectives in Czech in the context of their long equivalents. The research material was collected from the corpus of the Czech language, SYN2015. Native adjectives are statistically on the margins of the Czech language. They appear in specific grammar and lexical constructions. Therefore, they occupy a permanent place in the Czech system. They are used not only in literary statements, as the Czech grammar shows, but also in colloquial literary language (e.g. a hotovo). The short forms of adjectives most often perform the function of a predicate or predicative, more rarely an incongruent attribute, adverbial or independent element. Some adjectives occur in established language connections (e.g. pokud možno, buď tak laskav, buď zdráv).
