This study looks at the synchronous variation of the regional-syntactical [sein_angefangen] construction in the repertoire of autochthon Westphalian speakers. Using an interdisciplinary approach located between variation linguistics, conversation research and psycholinguistics, this study delves into the interplay between language use, language processing and usage-based syntactical representations in linguistic knowledge.
