Säule synchron und diachron. Ein Beitrag zur Semasiologie

Abstract

The current possibilities for studying language both synchronically and diachronically are growing immensely with the development of reliable digital resources. This paper sets itself the goal of searching for meaningful ways to give us the opportunity to make use of these digital resources for a semasiologically oriented research and thereby formulate meaningful statements about the change in meaning of lexemes. An attempt is made to combine traditional with innovative research methods and thereby enrich their repertoire. The lexeme column was chosen as an example.
