Review

"The dictionary makes fascinating reading and is very useful for travelling or working in Germanophone areas. [...] The dictionary is an impressive enterprise."Alastair G.H. Walker in: Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development 6/2007 "Herausgekommen ist ein bislang einmaliges 'Variantenw rterbuch'"Klaus Peters: dpa, Januar 2005 "Das Buch ist auch wahrlich als Gro tat zu bezeichnen."Andreas Fasel in: Welt am Sonntag, Januar 2005 "Der Nutzen des W rterbuches f r alle Praktiker der deutschen Sprache ist sofort erkennbar. Dar ber hinaus ist es unterhaltsam zu lesen und verweist den Streit um die Rechtschreibreform auf einen ihr zukommenden, n mlich hinteren Rang. Die Sprache lebt in den Regionen, und so liest sich das Variantenw rterbuch auch als ein Beitrag zu der jungen Disziplin der Kulturgeographie."Harald Loch in: DAAD Letter, 12/2004 "Ein Meisterwerk! 5 Sterne*****"www.wording.de H rprobe: Die vielf ltige Bedeutung des Wortes "Wuchtel"OE1/ORF.at "Dieses W rterbuch macht e

Product Description

The lexicon contains approximately 12,000 words and usages of standard language with nationally- or regionally-limited distribution, or differences in usage including their standard German equivalents. The lexicon is based on the analysis of an extensive corpus from all countries and states in which German is the national or regional official language, with an analysis of the language of the Internet as an additional data source.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for German translators, July 22 2007
By Jill R. Sommer "bonnjill" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Variantenworterbuch Des Deutschen: Die Standardsprache In Osterreich, Der Schweiz Und Deutschland Sowie In Liechtenstein, Luxemburg, Ostbelgien Und Sudtirol (Paperback)
My fellow translators and I refer to this dictionary as "The Blue Bible." If you occasionally translate Austrian or Swiss texts, you know how difficult it sometimes is to find equivalents for "non-standard" terms. This dictionary contains approx. 12,000 words and phrases of limited national or regional use and their "standard" German equivalents. It contains terms from Austria, Switzerland and Germany as well as Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, eastern Belgium, and northern Italy (South Tirol). It has been a life-saver several times, since I have a couple Swiss clients. It contains general terms, business terms, legal terms, food names, and anything else you can think of. The dictionary would also be helpful to fans of German language literature.
