Description The paper describes the Phonological Lexical Corpus of Czech (http://www.ujc.cas.cz/phword) and presents a sample of its analysis. The corpus is a phonologically transcribed database of lexical items from published dictionaries of Czech. It is demonstrated that there are certain tendencies in the distribution of syllables within words. First, the frequency of words decreases with the increase of non-short vowels within them. Second, words where one syllable is closed and the others are open are preferred to possible configurations. Third, Czech furthermore prefers words where exactly one syllable onset is complex and the others are simple.
