Heinz Kloss

Heinz Kloss (30 October 1904, Halle, Saxony-Anhalt – 13 June 1987) was a German linguist and internationally recognised authority on linguistic minorities.[1]

He coined the terms "abstandsprache" and "ausbausprache"[2] to try to describe the differences between what is commonly called a language and what is commonly called a dialect.
