Book Description
This book offers a comparative approach within a general framework of studies on minority languages of Western Europe and Russia and former Soviet space, focusing on linguistic, legal and categorization aspects. It is connected to a comparative study of the semantic contents of the terms referring to the different categories of these languages. The volume features multidisciplinary approaches, first linguistic (sociolinguistic and semantic) and legal, and investigates the limits of country-to-country comparisons, mirroring cases from France, Spain, and China with their counterparts from Soviet and later Russian configurations. Special examples, from a region as Ingria and a country as Tajikistan, help to contextualize this approach. In addition, the notion of migration languages, also minority languages, is studied in bilingual contexts, both from external (German, Greek, Chinese ...) and internal origins (Chuvash), linked to the urbanization in contemporary societies that has fostered the presence of these languages in major cities.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Grammar of the Russian Language I have allowed myself occasional references to other Indo European languages for purposes of illustration. Great pains have been taken with the aspects of the verbs, perhaps the most interesting feature in the Slavonic forms, and it is hoped that they are made as clear as is possible in a rudimentary work of the present kind.

Book Description
This is the first comprehensive volume to compare the sociolinguistic situations of minorities in Russia and in Western Europe. As such, it provides insight into language policies, the ethnolinguistic vitality and the struggle for reversal of language shift, language revitalization and empowerment of minorities in Russia and the European Union. The volume shows that, even though largely unknown to a broader English-reading audience, the linguistic composition of Russia is by no means less diverse than multilingualism in the EU. It is therefore a valuable introduction into the historical backgrounds and current linguistic, social and legal affairs with regard to Russia’s manifold ethnic and linguistic minorities, mirrored on the discussion of recent issues in a number of well-known Western European minority situations.

Book Description
My object has been to give a concise and clear analysis of the word-forms and syntax of the Russian language. In the paradigms of the nouns and verbs I have chiefly followed the arrangement of Miklosich. I have treated the grammatical forms in such a way as to show their relation to the Old Slavonic, known to us by the monuments of its literature which have been preserved.0I have allowed myself occasional reference to other Indo-European languages for purposes of illustration. Great pains have been taken with the ?aspects? of the verbs, perhaps the most interesting feature in the Slavonic forms, and it is hoped that they are made as clear as is possible in a rudimentary work of the present kind.0The prepositions, both in and out of composition, which in Russian - and, indeed, in all the Slavonic languages - exhibit a luxuriance of development, reminding us of ancient Greek, have also been carefully treated.0The accents have formed a laborious part of the work: the Russian do not mark them in their books, and therefore they can only be acquired orally. Not a little curious also is the power which the preposition frequently possesses of attracting to itself the accent of the word which it governs. (from the preface). Re-edition. Originally published 1889 in Oxford.

Book Description
Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,7, Justus-Liebig-University Giessen (Anglistik), course: Morphology, language: English, abstract: In every era of the history there were languages, that were spoken not only in its own culture, but also in other cultures for the reason of cultural, political, religious, scientific or economical executive positions of the concerning empire or state. A lot of european languages have been influenced by Latin and Greek because of the christianisation and the expansion of the roman empire to Gallia, Germania and the British isles. In the 18th century Frech became Lingua Franca, spoken by the royality. After the second worldwar English became a medium for worldwide accommodation by economical and political increasing of the United States. Throughout history many loanwords from the English have been adopted into Russian and many other languages, especially at the end of the 20th century and at the beginning of he 21st century. Since the end of the east-west conflict and the international position of the USA a rising use of anglicisms in the Russian language have been noticed.Every language is changing and is par of a lasting developemental process. Every part of developement and a linguistic era leave marks by implying new words while other words dissappear and become part of the past, also in Russian and English. New scientific and technological developements, the rapid growth of mass media and the public life are reasons for emergence of new words and meanings in English. They partly influence other languages for the reason of intergovernmental contacts in various areas and the global relevance of the English language in such a way, that it can be called an anglicism-explosion. The term paper at hand is targed to give an overview of the linguistic developement of Russian language influenced by the English language and the reason for English as an influential language. Similarities and differences of words with -ing suffix are analyzed for degree of linguistic integration into Russian. Morphological, but also phonological features will be analyzed and the orthographical level of loan words and the exent of the English influence. This analysis makes it possible to draw a conclusion about integration of –ing borrowings and their phonological, grammatical, and derivational characteristics.

Book Description
The series is a platform for contributions of all kinds to this rapidly developing field. General problems are studied from the perspective of individual languages, language families, language groups, or language samples. Conclusions are the result of a deepened study of empirical data. Special emphasis is given to little-known languages, whose analysis may shed new light on long-standing problems in general linguistics.
