Résumé

This article is intended as an overview of the latter years of the now completed project “Die Flurnamen des Kantons St. Gallen (TopSG)” [The rural names of the Canton of St. Gallen]. This project, funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) and the Canton of St. Gallen, was housed at the University of Zurich. It marked the final stage of the “St. Galler Namenbuch (SGNB)” [Book of names of St. Gallen]. After presenting the long and turbulent history of the SGNB, this article focuses mainly on the results achieved between 2019 and 2022. Extensive phonetic recordings made from the Summer of 2020 onwards are of special interest. The paper discusses both the opportunities and the difficulties encountered during the project. A further goal is to provide a kind of Vademecum for similar projects concerned with toponomastics.
