Die Normen des »Hochdeutschen« sind entstanden als Festlegungen für eine geschriebene öffentliche Sprachform. In den letzten Jahrzehnten richten sich die Sprecherinnen und Sprecher auch im Mündlichen an dieser Norm aus. Gleichzeitig gibt es dadurch mehr Situationen, in denen standardnahes Sprechen als normal gilt. Damit das angemessen bewältigt werden kann, muss diese Sprachform typische Merkmale des Sprechens aufweisen, Merkmale, die traditionell zum Beispiel eher in regionaler Form vorlagen. Um den beiden Bedingungen - Standardnähe und gesprochene Natürlichkeit - gerecht zu werden, entwickelt sich ein Gebrauchsstandard, der durch eine Bandbreite von (auch regionalen) Optionen gekennzeichnet ist. Um diesen Gebrauchsstandard, seine Randbedingungen, seine Ausgestaltung, aber auch seinen theoretischen Status geht es in dem vorliegenden Beitrag.
When collecting linguistic data using translation tasks, stimuli can be presented in written or in oral form. In doing so, there is a possibility that a systematic source of error can occur that can be traced back to the selected survey method and which can influence the results of the translation tasks. This contribution investigates whether and to what extent both of the aforementioned survey methods result in divergent results when using translation tasks. For this investigation, 128 informants provided linguistic data; each informant had to translate 25 Wenker sentences from Standard German into either East Swabian, Lechrain or West Central Bavarian dialect, as the case may be. The results show two tendencies. First, written stimuli lead to a slightly higher number of dialectal translation in segmental variables. Second, when oral stimuli are used, syntactic and lexical variables are translated significantly more often in such a manner that they diverge from the template. The results can be explained in terms of varying cognitive processing operations and the constraints of human working memory. When collecting data in the future, these tendencies should be taken into account.
Sprachentwicklung – Sprachkultur – Sprachkritik: Erwägungen zum heutigen und künftigen Deutsch
(2013)
Following an explanation of the problems to evaluate the general state of a language and to predict its future development, the main popular worries concerning the present German language are briefly presented and discussed. Three speculative scenarios of states of German at the end of the century are sketched and compared:
A. The preservation of the main structural features and domains of the German language,
B. The change of German into an Anglo-German creole,
C. The exchange of German by an 'international' English with the exception of a few relics of old German dialects.
Scenario A, the 'positive' one of the three possible developments, is argued for in more detail, and ways and means to support such a development of the German language within the context of the other European languages are suggested and discussed.
From Proof Texts to Logic. Discourse Representation Structures for Proof Texts in Mathematics
(2009)
We present an extension to Discourse Representation Theory that can be used to analyze mathematical texts written in the commonly used semi-formal language of mathematics (or at least a subset of it). Moreover, we describe an algorithm that can be used to check the resulting Proof Representation Structures for their logical validity and adequacy as a proof.
Redekonstellation und Text
(1978)
Im Folgenden wird die in der Forschungsstelle Freiburg des Instituts für deutsche Sprache formulierte Forschungshypothese über das Verhältnis der außersprachlichen Redekonstellation und der diesen entsprechenden Textsorten (vgl. Steger u.a. 1974, Funkkolleg 1972, Gesprochene Sprache 1973) anhand einer Untersuchung des Modalverbgebrauchs in 58 Texten verschiedener Textsorten der gesprochenen Standardsprache des heutigen Deutsch sowie des Gebrauchs bestimmter sprachlicher Mittel in zwei Texten derselben Textsorte überprüft.
The article presents the results of a survey on dictionary use in Europe, focusing on general monolingual dictionaries. The survey is the broadest survey of dictionary use to date, covering close to 10,000 dictionary users (and non-users) in nearly thirty countries. Our survey covers varied user groups, going beyond the students and translators who have tended to dominate such studies thus far. The survey was delivered via an online survey platform, in language versions specific to each target country. It was completed by 9,562 respondents, over 300 respondents per country on average. The survey consisted of the general section, which was translated and presented to all participants, as well as country-specific sections for a subset of 11 countries, which were drafted by collaborators at the national level. The present report covers the general section.
This article examines a recurrent format that speakers use for defining ordinary expressions or technical terms. Drawing on data from four different languages - Flemish, French, German, and Italian - it focuses on definitions in which a definiendum is first followed by a negative definitional component (‘definiendum is not X’), and then by a positive definitional component (‘definiendum is Y’). The analysis shows that by employing this format, speakers display sensitivity towards a potential meaning of the definiendum that recipients could have taken to be valid. By negating this meaning, speakers discard this possible, yet unintended understanding. The format serves three distinct interactional purposes: (a) it is used for argumentation, e.g. in discussions and political debates, (b) it works as a resource for imparting knowledge, e.g. in expert talk and instructions, and (c) it is employed, in ordinary conversation, for securing the addressee's correct understanding of a possibly problematic expression. The findings contribute to our understanding of how epistemic claims and displays relate to the turn-constructional and sequential organization of talk. They also show that the much quoted ‘problem of meaning’ is, first and foremost, a participant's problem.
