Dear colleagues,

The third conference «Indigenous languages of Russia in contact with Russian» will be held at Vinogradov Russian Language Institute (RAS), Moscow on 15–16 September 2023.
We invite abstract submissions addressing the following topics:
  • Borrowing of grammatical and lexical patterns from Russian into indigenous languages of Russia or between indigenous languages of Russia.
  • Radical changes in the grammar and lexicon of indigenous languages in the situation of language shift to Russian or to another language.
  • Contact-induced features in the Russian speech of native speakers of indigenous languages.
  • Russian-based pidgins.
  • Code-switching and code-mixing in the languages of Russia.
The conference aims to bring together researchers working on indigenous languages of Russia, experts in the Russian language, and sociolinguists. Papers based on new field data, as well as corpus-based studies are especially encouraged.
Topics which will not be discussed at the conference: sociological aspects of language contact without any linguistic issues; practical issues related to revitalization of minority languages, teaching Russian as L2 etc.; dialectal and regional features of Russian for which there is no reasonable evidence for contact-induced origin; problems of etymology.
