Abstract

he aim of this paper is to analyse concepts of language varieties in secondary and tertiary education in Austria. The questions put forward are (a) what speakers’ notions of varieties such as dialect and standard are at schools and universities, (b) how they evaluate them and (c) what normative expectations they have for their use in educational contexts. To answer these questions, semi-structured interviews were subjected to a content analysis. The results show that there are some similar variety concepts at school and university. At the same time, however, ambiguities and contradictions between the two areas as well as within them are disclosed. This reflects the complex diaglossic and partly also diglossic situation in Austria, where dialect and standard are equally present in everyday life and individual varieties are evaluated and used differently depending on the region, situation and probably also on an individual basis.
