If you are familiar with German, you might be interested in my latest Eurolinguistic clip, this time I’m talking about politeness strategies. It is meant to be an appetizer for my book Europas Sprachen und Kulturen im Wandel der Zeit.
If you are also interested in my earlier Eurolinguistic clips, just insert “Eurolinguistischer Clip” into YouTube’s search line.
