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…

Protection des minorités ou promotion du plurilinguisme
Toutes les villes du monde sont multilingues, étant donné que le plurilinguisme individuel et sociétal est plutôt la norme que l’exception. Par contre, les villes qui jouissent d’un statut multilingue officiel sont plutôt rares. Dans cette contribution, nous allons nous concentrer sur deux villes bilingues suisses, Biel/Bienne and Fribourg/ Freiburg. Nous nous concentrons en particulier sur le contexte institutionnel, c’est-à-dire le bilinguisme …
German or Swiss? Address and Other Routinised Formulas in German-speaking Switzerland
Connecting younger second-language learners and older bilinguals
This article reports on an inter-generational inter-cultural pilot project carried out in suburban Melbourne which supports the second-language acquisition of younger people and enhances the social inclusion of older people of migrant background. The article begins with an outline of the multilingual context in which the project is based. The project is then described, and qualitative data indicating its success are presented. This is collected f…
Language transmission revisited
This article revisits factors in intergenerational language maintenance and shift within the family. It does so through an in-depth analysis of what 14 migrants to Australia from German-speaking Switzerland reported in written life stories and subsequent life story interviews. The participants represent four family types and a wide age range, and they migrated over several decades. Whether they transmitted Swiss German to the children and if so, …
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…
It's something that's just faded away
This article is based on a case study of a family with three children who migrated to Australia from German-speaking Switzerland in 1984. It was found that within less than ten years, Swiss-German was substituted by English as the language in the home and today the younger generation use Swiss-German exclusively for communication with their relatives in Switzerland. The article retraces this change in language use and examines how the members of …
