Abstract (English): The monograph "Language Inquiries - Who asks? Who is asked? How is it asked? What is asked? Why is it asked?" by Elke Donalies examines language inquiries and their structure. The author has analyzed language inquiries from various sources and divided them into 14 categories, including articles, pronunciation, meaning, foreign words, logic of language, orthography, phrases, political correctness, prepositions, stylistic devices, and word formation. The inquirers are concerned about language decay or feel uncertain due to changes in language. The main reasons for the inquiries are their own language usage or the language usage of others. The monograph provides an overview of various questions regarding language inquiries and is of interest to linguists and the field of German as a foreign language. [Extracted from the article]
Abstract (German): Die Monografie "Sprachanfragen - Wer fragt? Wer wird gefragt? Wie wird gefragt? Was wird gefragt? Warum wird gefragt?" von Elke Donalies untersucht Sprachanfragen und deren Struktur. Die Autorin hat Sprachanfragen aus verschiedenen Quellen analysiert und in 14 Kategorien aufgeteilt, darunter Artikel, Aussprache, Bedeutung, Fremdwörter, Logik der Sprache, Orthografie, Phraseme, politische Korrektheit, Präpositionen, Stilmittel und Wortbildung. Die Anfragenden sind besorgt über den Sprachverfall oder fühlen sich durch Veränderungen in der Sprache verunsichert. Die Hauptanlässe für die Anfragen sind der eigene Sprachgebrauch oder der Sprachgebrauch anderer. Die Monografie bietet einen Überblick über verschiedene Fragestellungen zum Thema Sprachanfragen und ist für Linguisten und den Bereich Deutsch als Fremdsprache von Interesse.
