Abstract
We present a description of time and space modifications in Czech sentences based on the ForFun database. ForFun is a new resource built on annotated corpora of Czech-Prague Dependency Treebanks-for inspecting thousands of real examples categorized by their form as well as by their deep syntactic function.
Based on the database, we perform a detailed description of meanings of time and space modifications including a list of formal means with real examples coming from both written and spoken texts. It should be emphasized that the study is data-oriented rather than theory-oriented.
