Meeting Description: 

The renowned Dutch linguist C.B. van Haeringen showed in his 1956 book
‘Nederlands tussen Duits en Engels’ that Dutch not only holds the middle
ground between German and English with respect to the area where it is spoken,
but is also ‘in between’ these languages in a highly systematic way when it
comes to its linguistic structure. Though Van Haeringen’s account of this
‘Germanic Sandwich’ pattern focused on how Dutch historically drifted towards
more analytic structures, later comparative investigations expanded this work
considerably, adding more linguistic phenomena, highlighting structural and
typological patterns and differences, and exploring psycho- and
sociolinguistic explanations as well.
