Czech prechodnik

[Patrick Corness]

I would like to know colleagues' views on how they refer in English to the
category in Czech grammar termed prechodnik. I would call it the gerund and
Janda and Townsend's Czech Grammar uses this term. However, Czech linguists
writing in English generally insist on calling it the "transgressive" though
I doubt if this term is widely understood. If you have interests in Czech I
would be most grateful for your view. Thanks.
