The comparative description and analysis of the phonotactic structure of dialects is a research desideratum for both the German language and the languages of the world. With the proposed project, which will be located in Freiburg i. Br. and Marburg, we aim at the phonotactic-phonological investigation of dialects in Germany and thus at the areal diversity for a core area of grammar. The project aims to fill two major research gaps, which we localize in the fields of combinatorics of sounds and typicity of sound groups on the one hand and in the field of prosodic structuring of phonological units and rule-bound phonotactic patterns on the other hand. In line with these research gaps, the overall goal of the project is the first documentation and analysis of the phonotactic structure of German dialects on the basis of spoken language. The leading research question is dedicated to the areal dependency. It is: "To what extent are phonotactic structures space-forming for the dialects of German? In order to answer this question, a corpus of approximately 350,000 words based on spoken language is created, which we prepare linguistically in such a way that phonotactic analyses can be carried out at the level of words, syllables, sounds and features. The corpus will be made accessible for research via a database and will be designed in such a way that comparative studies between the greater areas of German dialects will be possible on different linguistic levels. In this way, we want to examine which sound sequences are possible in the dialects and to what extent they differ from sequences of the standard language. It is also necessary to uncover the phonetic-phonological and morphologically motivated principles of order that license the phonotactic possibilities of dialects (e.g. compliance with sonority order, word type restrictions, upper and lower limits of sound clusters). Our project thus becomes a test laboratory for linguistic theories, for example in the field of syllable structure, syllable complexity and prosodic phonology. With this project we open up new empirical territory for central areas of the language system and serve an area-oriented interest in phonology and morpho-phonology as well as a micro-level interest in language typology. At the end of the project, four articles and two monographs on various aspects of dialectal phonotactics will be available.

方言音系结构的比较描写和分析是德语乃至世界各语言研究的迫切需要。随着拟议的项目，这将是位于弗赖堡i。Br.和马尔堡，我们的目标是在德国方言的音韵调查，从而在语法的核心领域的地域多样性。该项目旨在填补两个主要的研究空白，我们本地化的声音组合学和典型的声音组的一方面，在韵律结构的音位单位和规则约束的音位模式的另一方面领域。根据这些研究空白，该项目的总体目标是在口语的基础上首次记录和分析德语方言的音位结构。主要的研究问题是致力于区域依赖。它是：“在多大程度上音位结构空间形成的方言的德语？为了回答这个问题，我们创建了一个基于口语的大约35万个单词的语料库，我们在语言学上以这样一种方式准备，即可以在单词，音节，声音和特征的层面上进行音位分析。该语料库将通过一个数据库供研究使用，其设计将使在不同语言水平上对更大范围的德语方言进行比较研究成为可能。通过这种方式，我们想研究哪些语音序列在方言中是可能的，以及它们在多大程度上不同于标准语言的序列。还需要揭示语音-音系学和形态学上的顺序原则，这些原则允许方言的音位可能性（例如，遵守响度顺序，词类型限制，声音集群的上限和下限）。因此，我们的项目成为语言学理论的测试实验室，例如在音节结构，音节复杂性和韵律音系学领域。通过这个项目，我们为语言系统的中心领域开辟了新的经验领域，并为语音学和形态音系学的区域导向兴趣以及语言类型学的微观层面兴趣提供服务。在项目结束时，将有四篇文章和两本关于方言语音学各个方面的专著。
