Ebook: Zur korrelativen Subordination im Deutschen

Correlates are a special feature of German grammar. They and their subordinate clauses can be described as correlative links within the broader context of subordination. This book takes a unified view of correlative links; syntactic, semanto-pragmatic, and stylistic aspects are discussed in terms of how they interact. In the foreground of interest is the question of the extent to which correlates are obligatory/optional, an essential point for the teaching of German as a foreign language.
