In the last years, theoretically informed research on syntax of
different varieties of German has gained momentum. In this symposium,
which is held on a regular basis, we want to bring together
researchers in this field and offer a forum for this line of research.
The papers will appear in printed form in a special issue of the
journal ZDL, as in the last years.  The conference languages will be
German and English.
We invite contributions on syntactic research on dialects or other
varieties of German or closely related languages (e.g. Letzeburgish,
Cimbrian and other isolated communities) from a synchronic or
historical viewpoint. The talks should treat the data from a
theoretically informed perspective. Please send a one-page abstract
(Times New Roman, 12 dpi, 1 inch margins) plus 1 page for examples and
references in pdf format to sardis at uni-saarland.de and
augustin.speyer at uni-saarland.de, with ‚Abstract Sardis 25’ in the
subject line.  Deadline is June 30, 2026.
Speaking Time: 30 min + 15 min discussion
