Contexto cultural

In Germany, academic writing is strictly separated from everyday speech. This phrase reflects the high value placed on empirical evidence and formal structure in German universities. It became a standard way to report statistical significance as quantitative research grew in the social sciences.

The 'Noun' Rule

What It Means

This phrase is the bread and butter of German academic writing. You are pointing to a specific set of data. You are telling your reader that the results match your hypothesis. It sounds very authoritative and precise. The word erwartungsgemäß is the star here. It means everything went according to plan. You aren't surprised by the results. You are just confirming them with math.

How To Use It

You will mostly use this in written reports or theses. It usually needs a noun at the end to be complete. Think of words like Zusammenhänge (connections) or Ergebnisse (results). You start with the location of the data. Then you describe what that data is doing. It’s like a roadmap for your reader's eyes. It keeps your writing structured and logical.

When To Use It

Use this when you are presenting research. It belongs in a university setting or a data-heavy business meeting. If you are writing a master's thesis, this phrase is your best friend. It shows you know how to interpret statistics. It also shows you had a clear expectation before you started. It makes you look like a pro who knows their stuff.

When NOT To Use It

Do not use this while ordering a beer. Your friends will think you've spent too much time in the lab. It is far too stiff for casual conversation. Avoid it in emotional situations or simple daily tasks. Using Korrelationsmatrix while discussing your grocery list is a bit much. Unless you really love spreadsheets, keep this for the office or school.

Cultural Background

German academic culture prizes precision and objectivity. There is a specific style called 'Wissenschaftssprache' (scientific language). This phrase is a perfect example of that style. It avoids personal feelings and focuses on the data. Germans value the 'Beleg' (proof). If you say something is true, you must show the table that proves it. It's all about being 'gründlich' (thorough).

Common Variations

You can swap out Tabelle 2 for any source. You might say Abbildung 1 (Figure 1) or die Analyse (the analysis). Instead of erwartungsgemäß, you could use wie vermutet (as suspected). If the results were a surprise, you would say überraschenderweise (surprisingly). The structure remains the same, but the 'vibe' of the result changes. It's a very flexible template for smart people.

Notas de uso

This is a strictly formal expression used in scientific or technical documentation. It requires a following noun to complete the grammatical thought.
