About This Book

Ein umfassendes orthographisches Wörterbuch des Deutschen, das in einer erweiterten dritten Auflage rund tausend neue Stichwörter, kurze Sacherklärungen und etymologische Angaben zu Fremd‑ und Lehnwörtern sowie seltenen deutschen Begriffen versammelt. Es gibt vorrangig die amtlich bevorzugte Schreibung an und ergänzt diese durch knappe Hinweise auf abweichende amtliche Regelungen sowie praktische orthographische Regeln zu Lauten und Schreibweisen. Ziel ist ein handliches Nachschlagewerk für richtige Schreibweise und kurze Bedeutungsangaben, nicht eine vollständige etymologische Behandlung; unsichere Herkünfte werden gekennzeichnet und auf ausführlichere Fachwerke verwiesen.
