This study analyzes word order variation in Transylvanian Saxon (TS) verbal complexes, in a multilingual community from Viscri, Romania. Due to a massive exodus after the revolution in Romania, the number of TS speakers has drastically diminished over the past 25 years, leaving only 15 speakers in the village. Such dramatic reduction has resulted in language shift from TS to German or Romanian. Upon analyzing speech data from 6 participants, aged 30 - 78, I show that this shift involves contact-induced variation in the structure of TS verbal complexes.
