The subject objective is the orientation in questions of the language culture and laying the basics of learning the phonetical aspect of the language. The students recognise the language in its standard and codification, get acquainted with the codificational and other scholarly literature which retains the language corectness, the stress is imposed on the stylistic refinement of the communication. When recognising the phonetical aspect of the language, the study concentrates on the proper orthoepy in communication, on the division of coherent speech and on further phonetical and phonological phenomena in our communication. It is necessary to be fully orientated in Czech spelling rules.
