Preservation of identity versus natural process: changes of proper names during their adaptation into Czech

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The paper focuses on different aspects of adaptation of proper names of foreign origin into Czech. From the point of view of the individual language levels, changes can be observed on phonetic level, graphical level (e.g. transcription or transliteration from different graphical systems) or morphological level (declension of a majority of names for the sake of their incorporation in the sentence structure). Another adaptation strategy is represented by name “translation” or accommodating a name to the Czech naming system (e.g. feminization of foreign surnames or assigning categories “given name” and “surname”, although the name forms belong to different naming categories in the language of departure). The data of the inquiries addressed to the Czech Language Consulting Centre may show what attitudes are adopted by the Czech language speakers (from enforcing a maximum of Czechified forms on one hand to refusing any adaption at all because of preservation of the name holder’s identity on the other hand). The paper also tries to answer a provocative question: is it possible to use foreign proper names in Czech without any adaptation?
