<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The past 20-30 years have witnessed an enormous increase in interest in areal biases of basic grammatical patterns. Among others,
Europe has been identified as a linguistic area which stands out if we compare the features of ‘Standard Average European’ (SAE) with their world-wide distribution, for instance, the relative pronoun strategy or HAVE-verbs and grammatical paradigms based on
these (perfects, causatives); cf. Haspelmath (2001), Heine/Kuteva (2006). At the same time, the “SAE-periphery”, namely languages in Eastern Europe, often turn out to form merely part of larger clines which stretch throughout (northern) Eurasia; e.g. non-nominative
experiencers, preference for non-finite predicates of independent clauses, locative comparatives, etc. On the other hand, areal clines and clusters within Europe (and adjacent parts of Asia) have been discovered which show that larger areas can be very heterogeneous
internally; compare, e.g., external possessors (Haspelmath 1999; Van de Velde/Lamiroy 2017), reflexive-reciprocal polysemy (Wiemer, forthcoming: §5.3), future gram types (Wiemer/Hansen 2012: 104-112; Wiemer, forthcoming: §4). Thus, as we examine presumed linguistic
areas in ever greater detail, we also increasingly discover heterogeneity within them, forcing us to refine our defining criteria.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:14.2pt"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">But regardless of how fine-grained our criteria are and how we define the limits of a particular linguistic area,
the true nature of this area can only be evaluated against the background of larger areas that, as it were, encirculate it (Wiemer 2004). This is why attempts at defining linguistic areas usually end up with relatively arbitrary decisions about the criteria,
the number of language varieties and/or the size of the area itself (Bisang 2006; Stolz 2006; Wiemer/Wächli 2012: 14-18, among others). The observation that specific properties of an area only become apparent if this area is evaluated against the background
of its larger geographic and linguistic surroundings is taken up in Wiemer (forthcoming), who posits the so-called “matrёški” approach, which should also be applied in dialect geography.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> In fact, the same problems in defining areas, or in determining areal clusters and clines, have also recently become
apparent in studies in dialectology, in particular in dialect geography aided by dialectometrical methods based on aggregates of often heterogeneous features (e.g., Heeringa/Nerbonne 2001; Szmrecsanyi 2013). The latter can in principle be compared with methods
applied in macro-areal typology (Nichols 1992; Bickel 2015). The question is whether methods of the latter domain can reasonably be applied to much smaller areas, and opinions differ considerably on this issue. While some scholars are optimistic that the methods
of macro-areal typology are equally apt for discovering micro-areal clines and clusters (cf., for instance, Borin 2013: 5), others are more skeptical (cf. Dahl 2001; Wälchli 2012). This is primarily because macro-areal patterns usually result from cumulative
effects of polygenetic origin (i.e. at different places and times within a particular area), whereas in micro-areas, in particular in dialect continua, the “</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">constant spread
of a feature across an originally homogeneous area from a single starting point”, i.e., the wave model, seems to provide a more adequate explanation (Wälchli 2012: 264f., also
</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">235</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">).</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">
</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">This, however, is an empirical question which to our knowledge has rarely, if ever, been seriously put to the test.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:14.2pt"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Micro-areal studies have the advantage that they allow for more in-depth scrutiny and allow us to account for
diastratic differentiation more easily, provided that adequate corpora or databases exist. Diastratic variation of linguistic features has more often than not been neglected in typological work (such as the Eurotype-project in the 1990’s), and outside of the
English-speaking world dialectology has paid little, if any, attention to diastratic diversification (as for East Slavic cf. Wiemer/Seržant 2014: 15-26). Moreover, for large areas it has been emphasized that one should not only deal with spectacular cases
(Wälchli 2012) and that it is a mistake </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">to contrast the close association of diffusion and contact with genealogical affiliation, as these two sources of convergence need
not contradict one another but may rather reinforce each other (Dahl 2001: 1457). These caveats are particularly appropriate when closely related languages (or varieties of one language) are studied, and here as well the goals of areal typology and dialect
geography converge. That is, research into dialect variation should not stop at borders between language families, but neither should areal linguistics neglect possibilities of cross-fertilization with dialect geography, at least when dealing with diffusion,
convergence and divergence on a smaller geographical scale. Moreover, larger areal clines can intersect with dialect continua of the languages (or language groups) involved (e.g., Balkan features

on procedures that help to prove (or reject) hypotheses concerning the genealogical relationship of Japonic to Altaic (cf. contributions to Johanson/Robbeets (eds.) 2010; Robbeets 2015), and on studies showing the internal differentiation of Uralic, Turkic
and Mongolic, particularly in terms of grammaticalization (cf. contributions to Robbeets/Cuyckens (eds.) 2013 and to Robbeets/Bisang (eds.) 2014).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

(2015) in his comprehensive diachronic and areal study on verbal preverbs and prefixes and their role in the rise of aspect systems. At the micro-areal level, Authier/Maisak (2011) have demonstrated convergence phenomena in the Caucasus in the systems of tense,
aspect and modality marking, while Authier (2010) shows morphological ‘matter’ borrowing between genetically non-related languages.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

(1956) seminal study on this area. Since then, an extensive literature on this topic has appeared, much of it somewhat skeptical of the idea (cf. Masica 1976 for an overview), while more recent studies tend to focus on micro-areas in the region rather than
South Asia as a whole (cf., e.g., Abbi 1997; Osada 1991; Peterson 2017a on eastern-central South Asia), focusing in most cases on convergences between the different genealogical groups of the subcontinent which suggest long-term contact. More recently, however,
the same methods are also being used to highlight major divisions within the language families of South Asia, suggesting large-scale language shifting at an earlier period (Peterson 2017b).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
