Abstract

The paper summarises basic linguistic means of expressing time, space and motion in contemporary Czech and attempts to systematise the existing linguistic research related to these topics. The analysis focuses on deictic, lexical and phrasal units and on selected grammatical categories (especially time, aspect and case) and points out specific features of a "Czech" understanding of the concepts as revealed by the given linguistic expressions.
