The comparative analysis on assigning gender to animal nouns in English and Czech
Original language description
This analysis focuses on the differences in gender assignment by Czech speakers of English. The summary of the data provides an answer to the research question "To what extent do the differences between gender assignment systems in English and Czech influence Czech speakers of English?" as follows: The differences between the gender assignment systems in English and Czech have a very strong influence on Czech users of English. My analysis showed the tendency to apply the Czech system of gender assignment when assigning gender in English. The group of respondents might be influenced by general usage of neuter when referring to animals in English. Another influential aspect could be that of emotion and personal involvement, especially in referring to "higher" animals.
