Verein Deutsche Sprache

Verein Deutsche Sprache e. V. (VDS) is a German association whose website presents the VDS-Akademie, a dynamic learning offering for adults aimed at both members and external interested parties. It also publishes the Anglizismenindex, an orientation aid for readers who do not understand or reject English or pseudo-English expressions in German texts, and it maintains working groups on German in schools and on gender language. Each year its members choose a 'Sprachpanscher des Jahres', and the association celebrates the Tag der deutschen Sprache on the second Saturday of September with information stands and cultural events.
