- Title
Das Ave Maria sprachlich anpassen.

SCHÄFER, KLAUS
- Abstract
The article "Adapting the Ave Maria linguistically" discusses the linguistic adaptation of the Ave Maria prayer. It is pointed out that the meaning of certain words has changed over time, such as the word "Dame" (lady). The Ave Maria has already been adapted over 50 years ago by replacing the word "Weib" (woman) with "Frauen" (women). The author suggests further adapting the Ave Maria to ensure that believers understand what they are praying and to align the wording with current language usage. A possible proposal for a new version of the Ave Maria is presented.
