This volume reports on the latest empirical studies on phonetic, lexical, and grammatical phenomena and their variation in spoken German. Because language is generally spoken in face-to-face encounters, the focus on the relationship between social interaction and the function and structure of linguistic forms. The volume's methodological approach is grounded in interaction linguistics, psycholinguistics, dialectology, and corpus linguistics.
