K vokalické kvantitě u verbálních substantiv na -aní/-ání ve čtyřjazyčném Nomenklátoru Daniela Adama z Veleslavína

The article deals with vowel quantity in the verbal nouns ending in -aní/-ání included in Daniel Adam of Veleslavín’s dictionary Nomenclator quadrilinguis (1598). In Old Czech, vowel quantity in these verbal nouns was regulated by rules manifested as rhythmicity, whereas there is no such regulation in Modern Czech. Daniel Adam of Veleslavín’s Nomenclator contains nouns corresponding to the Old Czech vowel quantity restrictions as well as nouns corresponding to those in Modern Czech. In some cases, a phonetic explanation for the vowel quantity observed could be proposed.
