Linguistics RAS, NRU HSE)

This workshop continuing the series of workshops focusing on Finno-Ugric
and Turkic languages of the Volga-Kama region, held in the years 2014,
2015, 2016, and 2019. The existence of strong areal connections between
Finno-Ugric and Turkic languages, which are usually brought together under
the notion of Volga-Kama Sprachbund, has been known for a long time. We
expect that the collaboration of specialists of Volga-Kama languages will
help to bring forward subtle differences and similarities, which will be
valuable for descriptive and theoretical research in the domain of each
particular language.

accepted.

Should the epidemiological situation in Russia or worldwide get worse, the
workshop will be partially or fully held on-line.
