Eine Studie zeigt, dass Österreicher ihr Hochdeutsch als schöner, gebildeter und präziser empfinden als das deutsche Hochdeutsch. 94 Prozent der Befragten halten Deutsch für eine Sprache mit mehreren Standards, was die Wertschätzung des österreichischen Hochdeutschs unterstreicht.
Lieber Österreichisch oder Bundesdeutsch? Ihre Meinung ist gefragt
Eine Studie zeigt: Österreicher empfinden ihr Hochdeutsch als schöner und sympathischer. Und auch Südtirol wird in der Umfrage berücksichtigt.

Trump just blamed Ukraine outright for Russia’s invasion. ‘You shoulda never started it,’ he said. What a lie, a Russian lie—from the President of the US.

Polen hat heute eine Rekordwahlbeteiligung von 72,9%, mehr als im Umbruchsjahr 1989. Das zeigt wieder: der Kampf gegen Rechtspopulismus und autoritäre Kräfte wird nicht gewonnen, indem man ihnen entgegenkommt, sondern durch Mobilisierung für die eigenen demokratischen Werte.
