Summary/Abstract: When looking at the Transylvanian-Saxon vocabulary, it is found that certain parts of speech, for example adjectives, verbs, and nouns have a meaning in common with the German written and colloquial speech. However, there are extended meanings as well. As case examples we chose the adjective „kauderwelsch” and the verb „karteln”. Also included are verbs, the loan-words are „bud#lin”, „mutan”, „mut$r#n” and „taw#rn”, which initially have their common basic meaning and additionally show each one their own meaning. The latter lexeme is a loan-word, which is frequently used in the Transylvanian-Saxon colloquial speech. The case examples are taken from the Transylvanian-Saxon dictionary, the northern Transylvanian dictionary and vernacular literature.
