AB Focusing on morphematics, the author analyses two samples that represent the contemporary spoken Czech on the one hand and the contemporary written Czech on the other hand. He shows the main differences between these two existential modes of language. The different distribution of word classes in spoken and written language causes the most marked differences in morphematics. The various claims to precision and explicitness of the spoken and written communication cause rather less differences in morphematics. Both samples show that in the Czech language still dominates the inflection as a typological principle.
