Otto Behaghel (May 3, 1854 in Karlsruhe – October 9, 1936 in Munich) was a germanist and professor in Heidelberg, Basel, and Gießen.[1][2]
He added theoretical contributions to the German and Middle High German language.[3] He formulated Behaghel's laws that describe the principles that govern word positions in a sentence. His work is still important in Theme and rheme research.
