Meeting Description:

„German abroad” is going to take place from October 10-13, 2023 in Eichstätt with a transfer to Munich, continuing the tradition of earlier conferences in Vienna (2014), Austin (2016), Erfurt (2018), and Windhoek (2021). The conference focuses on systemic and sociolinguistic features of German-speaking language minorities from the perspectives of variation linguistics, language contact and multilingualism research. Situations and phenomena of language contact that are shaping the multilingual communicative practices of communities outside of German-speaking Central Europe will be of central importance. We also want to encourage perspectives from perceptual research, e.g. on language attitudes and linguistic ideologies that emerge in the environment of contact varieties of German.
