Current marketing statistics indicate an increase in tours that encompass the capital cities as well as villages and rural areas throughout the Baltics. According to the latest reports, a significant percentage of foreign visitors are German- speaking tourists. This overview combines observation, interviews and quantitative measures to determine how well the Baltic tourism industry is prepared to accommodate needs of this specific customer group. At present, tourism study programs provide a limited range of German language courses, which meet the need for German-speaking tour guides. However, judging from cultural indicators, is apparent that the increase in German-speaking tourists will spark a simultaneous demand for more customized tours geared to the interests of smaller, more specialized groups. Recommendations address the need to design more diversified German studies programs to better prepare tour guides for the future.","PeriodicalId":55923,"journal":{"name":"Treballs de Sociolinguistica Catalana","volume":"9 1","pages":"185 - 198"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75092095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research draws upon the ethnographic approach. The data come from participant observations conducted in restaurants and cafés as well as from interactions with tourist agencies in the center of Prague. Additionally, short interviews with foreign tourists and employees of these tourist facilities were conducted. The results show that most of the foreign tourists and the Czech personnel expect English as a lingua franca to fulfill the basic communicative function in mutual interactions. Apart from that, various electronic tools are often used. They help to solve manifold language problems on the written basis.","PeriodicalId":55923,"journal":{"name":"Treballs de Sociolinguistica Catalana","volume":"27 1","pages":"141 - 154"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85086423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One possibility of treating them politely is the adequate language choice with respect to their mother tongue, I which they will, as a rule expect to be addressed, if it is a language of considerable international standing (e.g. French or German) or spoken by many tourists in the respective location. Otherwise they will consider it at least more polite to be addressed in a lingua franca, mostly English, than in the local language of the tourist destination. Tourist will find it particularly polite to be addressed in their own mother language if it does not rank among the more international languages. These hypotheses are deduced from well-founded politeness theories based on face-saving and identity assumptions and are illustrated by examples in order to show ways of further empirical corroboration or falsification.","PeriodicalId":55923,"journal":{"name":"Treballs de Sociolinguistica Catalana","volume":"40 1","pages":"13 - 22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76119143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
