Contact between Russian and other languages is long-standing and extensive, with Russian speakers expanding across Eurasia to the Pacific coast in the east and to the Baltic Sea in the northwest. The vast geographic and political spread of Russian has meant that its speakers have been in contact with speakers of languages that differ not only typologically and genealogically but also demographically, with some being the so-called small-numbered languages and others major regional languages. This provides fertile ground for the investigation of contact-induced change.</span></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.399999618530273px;
