The fourth conference “Indigenous Languages of Russia in Contact with
Russian” will be held in a hybrid format at the Vinogradov Russian
Language Institute (RAS), Moscow, on 19–20 September 2025.
We invite abstract submissions addressing the following topics:
– Borrowing of grammatical and lexical patterns from Russian into
indigenous languages of Russia or of other areas.
– Borrowing of grammatical and lexical patterns  between indigenous
languages of Russia.
– Contact-induced features in the varieties of Russian influenced by
languages of Russia or of other areas.
– Russian-based pidgins.
– Code-switching and code-mixing involving Russian.
The conference aims to bring together researchers working on
indigenous languages of Russia, typologists, experts in the Russian
language, and sociolinguists. Papers based on new field data and
corpus-based studies are particularly 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.
The conference programme will include two plenary presentations and
oral presentations by other conference participants (20 minutes + 10
minutes for discussion).
Language of presentation: English or Russian.
Invited speakers:
– Nikolai B. Vakhtin (European University at St. Petersburg)

Academy of Sciences).
