This project conducts a survey on “Aspects of (multi-)lingualism in Austria” that is representative for Austria’s electorate population.

A joint pilot project of the RU Linguistics and the SFB “German in Austria” focuses lexical variation, providing innovative analyses based on both present day and historic data.

At the heart of the project lies the quantitative analysis of the spatial structure and dynamics of the Bavarian base dialects in Austria and South Tyrol, drawing on material from the Dictionary of Bavarian Dialects in Austria (WBÖ).

The linguistic research on the German language in Austria is being reflected and contextualized in this project from the perspectives of history of science and philosophy of science (as well as sociology of knowledge).

LexAT visualizes lexical variation of the spoken language in Austria on the whole dialect-standard-axis multi-perspectively and interactively through an innovative mapping tool.

The project Language Dynamics in Austria (DynAT) is a long-term project of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW). The aim of the project is to document and analyze processes of language variation and language change in Austria.
