The article introduces the language of wine connoisseurs in all its forms and, based on a number of specific examples from different genres and various types of texts (specialist literature, catalogues, wine labels, etc.), aims to stimulate discussion on the circumstances which influence the level of specialization in connection with the choice of linguistic resources.
The article analyses three texts which address the same subject (the definition of the word Wort) and aims to demonstrate that it is not only the topic that plays a crucial role in creating the macrostructure and microstructure of a text, but also the communicative situation. The article explores what differences there are in the selection of linguistic means when the same content is being expressed in texts intended for communication at various levels of specialization, and which communication strategies the authors of the texts choose in connection with the text's genre, their intentions and (above all) the communicative situation.
Und wieder Fachsprachen?

This article focuses on the development of LSP research in Germany in order to determine desiderata and to establish priorities for further research projects. Since the 1960s lexicon and grammar of LSP have been described. As a result we now have extensive and mostly even statistically proved results in the fields of morphology, word formation and syntax. In the 1980s research was oriented to a pragmalinguistic description of texts, which made it possible to characterize texts in situational context. Since the 1990s cognitive linguistics has been given more priority, but the results achieved so far are not yet satisfactory. This leads to the question, which topics our attention should be devoted to. There are three groups of problems: Key problems of the theoretical description and systematization of LSP, LSP on conditions of digitalization and globalization, LSP in different contexts (scientific, technical, economic, cultural, administrative etc.).
The article characterizes the stylistic tendencies found in academic economic texts with a high degree of abstraction presenting economic theory from the end of the 18th century to the present day. At the centre of the author's attention are changes that are visible on the microstructural level of the text. In this connection, the author also describes quantitative methods that can be used in the diachronic analysis of academic texts.
Anhand einer vergleichenden Analyse von DaF-Lehrwerken aus dem Bereich "Wirtschaftsdeutsch" und "Berufsdeutsch" wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwiefern sich gemeinsprachliche und fachsprachliche Lehrwerke voneinander unterscheiden. Dabei werden nicht nur Unterschiede bzw. Gemeinsamkeiten sichtbar gemacht, sondern auch Probleme aufgezeigt, die sich aus den besonderen Anforderungen an Fachsprachenlehrwerke ergeben. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung weisen darauf hin, dass sich fachsprachliche Lehrwerke zumeist vor allem idealtypisch von gemeinsprachlichen unterscheiden, in der konkreten Umsetzung sind die Unterschiede bisweilen marginal.
