2018
Abstract
The paper deals with linguistic characteristics of the Czech language in contemporary educational materials. The author defi nes the notion and term school Czech language and states that the history-centred approach to the language, as it is seen on the material of examples used in textbooks, still dominates in the educational process, despite the long-lasting criticism.
This tendency has a response in texts prepared by pupils. Therefore is justifi able to speak about the real school Czech language which is characteristic by its archaicity and artifi cia lity.
