Negotiating Mongolian ethnic identity through the teaching of Mandarin Chinese as a second language
Despite growing attention paid to the language ideologies of teachers as actors in bilingualism or multilingualism studies, little research has examined whether and how power dynamics between majority and minority languages play a role in the promulgation of a majority language to ethnic minority learners of that majority language. This paper explores how both linguistic and cultural knowledge of Mandarin are understood by a specific group of Mon…
Adelung's English-German dictionary (1783, 1796)
This article examines Johann Christoph Adelung's English-German dictionary (1783, 1796). The dictionary deserves our attention because it was undertaken by the author of a ground-breaking German dictionary (Adelung 1774-86, 2 1793-1801), working from Samuel Johnson's equally epoch-making English dictionary (1755, 41773). Yet the work has thus far been almost entirely overlooked. This article seeks to address that research gap. It reveals the very…
Language standards, standardisation and standard ideologies in multilingual contexts
This essay-which also serves as an introduction to the six other articles which make up this special issue-examines the development of the field of language standardisation studies in recent decades. First, it notes the change in focus occasioned by drawing on the notion of language ideologies, especially standard language ideology. That ideological awakening has, in turn, revealed that standardisation studies have, until recently, been largely i…
Mining foreign language teaching manuals for the history of pragmatics
Foreign language learning manuals can be valuable sources for the history of pragmatics and historical pragmatics. They may contain explicit guidance on pragmatics not found in native-speaker grammars. For example, accounts of German forms of address in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century English–German manuals provide evidence of changing views on the appropriateness of ihr and Sie earlier than does the “native” grammatical tradition. The biling…
Combining Modal Particles in German and Dutch
This paper is a corpus-based comparative study of modal particles in German and Dutch. We examine the special ability of Dutch and German modal particles to cluster, and demonstrate that Dutch is far more cluster-friendly than German. We also find clear differences in the behavior of cognate particles in the two languages and note that a corpus study reveals quite different patterns from those arrived at by introspection in earlier research. Fina…

Justus Georgius Schottelius (1612–1676) and European Linguistic Thought
This article re-evaluates the significance of the 17th-century grammarian Justus Georgius Schottelius (1612–1676) not just for German linguistic thought (where the importance of his cultural-patriotic Spracharbeit and his contribution to grammatography and lexicography is undisputed), but also in Europe more widely. Contributing to the complex story of the rootword in European linguistic thought, it also demonstrates how the notion of grammatical…
Linguistic Purism, Protectionism, and Nationalism in the Germanic Languages Today
This paper re-examines the notions of “linguistic purism” and “linguistic nationalism” with respect to public discourses of language cultivation in recent years in a number of Germanic-speaking countries (Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, and, briefly, Norway). In particular, the paper considers domain protection and attitudes to spelling variability and spelling reform. While in Germany linguistic nationalism and linguistic purism meet …

A historical study of codeswitching in writing
The paper examines a major 17th century German text by the language theorist Justus-Georg Schottelius as an example of codeswitching in writing, an area which has received scant attention since an important study of Luther's bilingual Tischreden 40 years ago (Stolt, 1964). The paper analyzes the extent and types of Latin-German mixing in Schottelius' writing, and argues that, even though written, these are instances of codeswitching, that is, the…
Standardization
This volume presents fourteen case studies of standardization processes in eleven different Germanic languages. Together, the contributions confront problematic issues in standardization which will be of interest to sociolinguists, as well as to historical linguists from all language disciplines. The papers cover a historical range from the Middle Ages to the present and a geographical range from South Africa to Iceland, but all fall into one of …
Linguistic Purism in Action
The auxiliary do (tun) is one of the most-discussed constructions in West Germanic. In German, there is a striking opposition between modern standard German, where the construction is virtually ungrammatical and considered to be sub-standard by most speakers, whilst, as this book shows, the construction is attested in all modern dialects as well as historic stages since 1350. In answering why auxiliary tun is ungrammatical in modern standard Germ…

Albertus (1573) and Ölinger (1574)
This article adapts Linn's 'stylistics of standardization' concept, which Linn (1998) has used to compare Norwegian and Faroese grammarians, to look at grammaticization processes in the first two grammars of German (Albertus 1573, Ölinger 1574). While both are clearly indebted to traditional Latin grammar and humanist ideals, these two grammars differ interestingly in the picture of the language that emerges from their metalanguage and structural…
Multiculturalism, migration and racism
This study compares the discourses of multiculturalism in two Australian and two German daily newspapers in a single, randomly chosen week in 1996, to test whether differences in official policy with regard to multiculturalism in the two countries are reflected in their print media. A detailed evaluation of all sections of the 24 newspapers reveals both quantitative and qualitative differences in the treatment of multiculturalism in the two count…
