Abstract

The history of linguistics in Europe has shown that the development of the conceptual and terminological level results from the practice of grammar writing in one’s own language. The German grammars of the modern age are based regarding their terminology and their structure almost exclusively according to the classical principles of the doctrine of the word classes. Some terms of the syntax of the sentence are restricted to the description of the use and functions of the prepositions and conjunctions. The aim of this paper is to show the influence of the grammar of the classical languages within the German tradition on the development of the German linguistic terminology especially regarding the relations among sentences.
