2019 has been declared by UNESCO as the International Year of

Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences announces the
International Conference “Documentation of Languages and Dialects
of Indigenous Peoples of Russia”. The conference will be held on

In this rapidly changing world, languages and dialects that do not
have a large number of speakers are under the threat of an
ever-increasing limitation of their use. The primary task of the
researcher is the maximum possible and high-quality documentation of
languages and dialects in their natural use. However, various
situations often arise during the work with a native speaker which
can change the workflow of the documentation process. Nowadays there
are various technical means of recording, decoding, annotating,
analyzing and archiving of linguistic materials. Many of us are
documenting endangered languages and have an extensive experience in
using various tools of documentation as well as different approaches
to solving the documentation problems in the field. The conference
will primarily focus on the problems of the documentation of
languages and dialects of Indigenous Peoples of Russia in the field.</span></font></p><p lang="en-US" class="m_2415885616166564845western" style="margin-bottom:0.35cm;line-height:115%"><font face="Times" class=""><span style="font-style:normal;font-size:14px" class="">
