“It’s the National Assembly here, Madam!”
Parliamentary debates are adversarial in nature ( Ilie 2003 ). This paper focuses on interruptions, which have been described as a means by which to disturb the speech of an authorised speaker ( Truan 2016a ), and their subsequent reactions. Herein, we aim to examine the link between the use of address forms and the conflictual nature of parliamentary debates. Drawing on cross-cultural pragmatics, our study compares data from the Finnish Eduskunt…
Pronominal Address in German Sales Talk
Increasing numbers of commercial enterprises in the German-speaking countries are switching from the traditional formal Sie address for customers to the more casual du address. This article reports on a part of an interdisciplinary empirical study evaluating the effect that the address pronoun used towards the customer has on the perception of the salesperson. Respondents were shown short videos of sales encounters and asked to indicate their per…
Perceptions of national and regional standards of addressing in Germany and Austria
This article investigates the use of German forms of address in different national and regional varieties of German, as perceived by speakers of those varieties. For particular domains such as the workplace, informants report significant regional and national differences in use not only of pronominal address but also of nominal address and linguistic structures linked to addressing such as greetings. The data also confirm differences in informati…
The Social Dynamics of Pronominal Systems
Approaches to the study of address in pluricentric languages
While research on pluricentricity has traditionally focused on phonological, lexical and grammatical variation across national varieties, pluricentric languages also provide a rich laboratory for the exploration of pragmatic variation, and potentially new insights into the complexities of both pragmatics and pluricentricity. Pluricentric pragmatics remains a developing field and determining appropriate methodologies and strategies for data collec…

Pronominal address in German
Choice of address forms, a socially crucial feature in German communication, is context-dependent on situations (a) where the unmarked form of address is du (T), (b) where it is Sie (V), and (c) where the two systems (a and b) coexist. The first two situations are, apart from their fuzzy edges, rather clearcut. The third situation, however, appears anarchic and has a high embarrassment potential. In an empirical study based on 72 interviews condu…
Perceptions of variation and change in German and Swedish address 1
German and Swedish speakers diverge in contemporary address practice. The Swedish T form has become unmarked, with V limited to very specific situations. Apart from some specific T or V contexts, German now has coexistent systems, one with T, the other with V as the unmarked form, with different speakers or networks preferring one or the other. In an ongoing project, focus groups and participant observation in Austria, (eastern and western) Germa…
