Das Gute daran ist das Gute darin: Neuerungen in der Neuauflage (2016) des Variantenwörterbuchs des Deutschen
Innovations in the New Edition 2016 of the German Variants Dictionary

Summary/Abstract: The fully revised, extended and updated second edition of the “Variantenworterbuch des Deutschen (German Variant Dictionary)” covers hitherto not lexicographically coded peculiarities of the German language in Romania, Namibia and Mexico and thus the present variety spectrum on the margins and far beyond the closed German language area. Focussing on the written-language side of the standard varieties to which the inventory in the GVD is dedicated, the dictionary points out differences and thus peculiarities of the different varieties of the German language spoken in the respective centres. The article therefore presents important innovations in an overview.
