| Description | This contribution captures current tendencies in choice of grammatical forms in Gsg. and Lsg. of Czech masculine toponyms corresponding to the pattern hrad. Results follow from evaluation of this matter in selected grammars of contemporary Czech and, in particular, from several-year research of SYN2005 corpus material. Choice of endings (-a/-u) in Gsg. and (-e/-u) in Lsg. is influenced by various factors – personal or impersonal origin of a toponym, derivational factor, formal factor, historical factor and frequency factor. |
