| Research Abstract |
On account of the standardization policy of the German language since the 19th century, the unification of the language norm is substantially realized. However, its diversification is underway owing to the growing tendency of descriptionalism and the establishment of national standard varieties. This phenomenon of destandardization, which is taking place after achieving standardization to a large extent, is not to be regarded as return to dialects. It is brought about by various factors, such as enlargement of the using domains of dialects, development of national varieties and language policies in German-speaking countries.
Norms of the German language are now at the stage of coexistence after going through the stages of convergence and divergence. After the stage of convergence, in which a mo-nocentric point of view was dominant, the stage of coexistence has appeared where plural norms are recognized as being equal. The subsequent development of plurilingualism in the EU and the consciousness of language right stimulated the process of restructuring the differing norms. In this study, the ongoing destandardization is examined in terms of the realigning process of the German norms.
