Your achievement lies in the consistent implementation of an empirical approach on the one hand and the inter-lingual comparison on the other. This view was decisive for the newer German school grammar. For the new Duden grammar from 2006 , which thus moved away from a prescriptive position for the first time, she contributed the chapter on the verb. She succeeded in making the grammar of use permeable for many questions from recent research, without falling into the dispute over the various grammar concepts.
