Hi Martina,

I don't know what our Anglo-Saxons would think of it, but SCP calls itself

(In fact it's not very difficult to find it - just go to their homepage and
look for the English title.)

"Stand by" generally means to wait alertly for further instructions.

I can provide a free lift by car with me from Brno to Prague and back
to visit the St. Jerome Day to anybody from the list next Saturday 9
November (for the afternoon programme only). Departure from Brno ca
1100, departure for the return trip to Brno probably around 1800-1830
from the venue. Point of departure in Brno easily accessible by the
backbone tram line #1. Interested persons can contact me off-list by
Thursday 7 November, 20.00, at the latest.

Does the following sentence make sense to you?

"Od prvniho usneseni bylo upusteno v souladu s ust. § 169 odst. 2 o.s.r.,
nebot jim bylo zcela vyhoveno navrhu, jemuz nikdo neodporoval."

Am I misunderstanding something, or does that say the decision was voided
because it satisfied the petition and no one protested?

Thanks,
Michael

Hi Michael,

In principle, I think you are right. I guess the sentence should have read,
Od plneni prvniho  usneseni. If they dropped passing the resolution, the
phrase would not have sense.

I still think you must be seeing something that I'm not. Why are they
dropping it when everything's fine?

I understand "jim" to refer to the "usneseni" and "jemuz" to the "navrh"--is
that not right?

Hi Michael,

using your words (for lack of context), I'd translate it (quickly and almost
literally) as:


The first decision was not made/not discussed, not proposed?? (upusteno does
not tell you which) ............,
because it fully satisfied the petition/proposal, which (the
petition/proposal) was not opposed by anyone.


Can't say it tells me much.... I think there was a usneseni to be
discussed/adopted, but then discusion and decision was dropped because the
useneseni fully satisfied a navrh which was not opposed to by anyone, i.e.
there was no need to discuss its adoption???? Context might help, speaking
to whoever was there or wrote this or knows what the hel it's about may
solve the mystery.....

Certainly wins this week's best legalese award...

Hi Michael,

I am sorry to confuse you even more. My wife (still a lawyer :-) says
something completely different than I thought. First, there is a mistake in
the sentence, it should read,

"Od *oduvodneni* prvniho usneseni bylo upusteno v souladu s ust. § 169 odst.
2 o.s.r.,
> nebot jim bylo zcela vyhoveno navrhu, jemuz nikdo neodporoval."

Second, o.s.r is, as you probably know,  Obcansky soudni rad.

Third, the situation is, a lawsuit has started, and the defending party
probably did not come to the court room, or at least did not argue with the
claim (navrhu nikdo neodporoval). Typically, the judge issues a ruling (or a
decision) which usually includes a long paragraph with reasons explaining
his deliberations and what led him to decide so (a justification). However,
if no objection was raised, no justification is needed and the paragraph was
omitted in the text of the  _first_ ruling (Od *oduvodneni* prvniho usneseni
bylo upusteno).
This kind a relief is allowed by the quoted Section and paragraph.

Hope this helps
Martin

How about maybe something like

"The first decision was dismissed in accordance with § 169 because such
dismissal granted an unopposed motion"?

or

"The first decision was vacated in accordance with § 169 because a
motion for its vacation was unopposed."

???

>>Am I misunderstanding something, or does that say the decision was voided

I take the "jim" as referring to "takovým upuštěním" instead of the
usnesení, maybe wrongly, i.e., "because by doing so, an unopposed motion
was granted" or (more wordily) "because doing so (vacating the first
decision) was in accordance with a motion that no one opposed."

Ever yours in possible error

Wonderful!  THAT makes sense.  So maybe something like

"In accordance with § 169, no statement of reasons was given in the
first decision, because the decision fully granted an unopposed motion."

> "Od *oduvodneni* prvniho usneseni bylo upusteno v souladu s ust. § 169 odst.

And of course that returns the jim to being usnesenim, unlike the odd
puzzle there was before--MUCH better.  Klobouk dolu to Martin's wife!

Yes, that one makes sense. This was a bankruptcy adjudication pursuant to a
voluntary bankruptcy petition, comprising several individual rulings. I had
been thinking of "usneseni" (at the top of the document) as singular, but if
it's plural and the sentence I quoted refers only to the first ruling, and
the word "oduvodneni" is added, it all makes sense.

Thanks to all who helped!

However, probably the largest distributor in CZ, Sempra (sempra.cz), use the
word 'osivo' only, in expressions such as 'kvetinove a zeleninove osivo',
'prodejna osiv', 'osiva volne vazena' etc etc.

It seems that 'osivo' is the general term while 'semeno' would appear in set
expressions, i.e. 'travni semeno'.

Just my feeling though.

I would say it depends on size - osivo shall be something very small (about

bigger and more individually treated. It is my feeling however.

Received Pronunciation (RP)
RP is one of the typical accents with which Standard English is spoken - but
not by any means the only one. In fact it's only spoken by at the most 2% of
the population of Britain. But unlike other accents, RP is not strictly
regional - you can hear it anywhere in the British Isles, and it's
understood everywhere in the English-speaking world - not like some other
accents!
RP has changed a lot over recent decades, and its prestige has dropped
sharply. It's still the pronunciation taught in British-orientated English
courses, but this situation may not last very long. It looks very much as if
the accent of the larger area around London - so-called Estuary English, -
is becoming the dominant accent in England. RP is becoming more and more the
accent of the old upper class, but it is still (together with the General
American accent) the basis of English as a Second Language throughout the
world.

Hi Sarka,

It stands for Received Pronunciation (it's pretty much like what we used to
call "BBC English" in Ireland, as all their newsreaders used it until very
recently).
The best description of it that I have to hand is from the the Oxford Guide
to English Usage:

'...Received Pronunciation (RP), namely "the pronunciation of that variety
of British English widely considered to be least regional, being originally
that used by educated speakers in southern England" (OED).  This is not to
suggest that other varieties are inferior; rather, RP is here taken as a
neutral national standard, just as it is in broadcasting or in the teaching
of English as a foreign language.'

"Received pronunciation", i.e. an upper-class British accent. I've always
wondered where they received it from.

I found this was the case when I first started teaching English in Prague in the
early nineties. The staff-room at the State Language School on Narodni sounded
like the Royal Pavilion at Ascot :) but things soon started changing. THe first
year I was there, they used a recording of a London fireman speaking a non-RP
southern accent for the aural examination and quite a few students put in
complaints that he was not speaking the "standard" English they had been taught,
so they couldn't attune. The following year they used a recording of a Mancunian
(me) but by that time most students had got the message that there are numerous
perfectly acceptable varieties of standard English so the complaints were less
aggrieved. The recordings accompanying the Cambridge course have several accents
- and not just British - which gave the teachers ample opportunity to explain
the situation about standard varieties. I think the Headway series also did some
very good work in this area. I don't think many intermediate students would now
be phased by the London fireman.

I'd say the RP vowel system is still useful in the classroom as a
reference-point for describing the other varieties. According to my textbook
"International English - a Guide to the Varieties of Standard English", one
should distinguish between true RP and "Near-RP". Can't say I can tell the
difference. They all sound "nicely-sporken" to me.

If you are talking in terms of numbers then this may well be the case in large
tracts of the South-East but I think you'll find that those using northern
vowels (e.g. 'cut' to rhyme with 'put') easily outnumber the "do-whats"  - as
some EE speakers are jocularly referred to, due to their habit of saying, "do
what, son? <sniff>" instead of "I beg your pardon, my good fellow, I don't quite
follow." :)

Apparently, "received" used to have the meaning of "accepted, considered as

Does anyone know why every e-mail I receive from someone at Seznam.cz has a
subject line like this?

     =?iso-8859-2?Q?Re=3A=20=3F?=

And why attachments come as text files that nothing will open and have names
like this?

     =?iso-8859-2?Q?SVATBA=2Edoc?=

Or this?

     =?iso-8859-2?Q?Hi=2Edoc?=

I think I've seen subject lines like that from Seznam even on Czechlist.
It's causing me problems, because those attachments just cannot be opened.
Does anyone have any solutions (other than telling people to get a Hotmail or
Yahoo account)?
