Isi artikel

The article deals with the results of the language contacts between Russian and Komi (Komi-Zyrian), especially one of its dialects, that of Ižma, in the north-eastern corner of European Russia. The long-term contacts are discussed in a socio-historical context, which explains how the present minority status of Komi has occurred. The structural, lexical, and pragmatic unilateral convergence of Komi with Russian is explored. A case study with material from a TV interview – a semi-official speech of an Ižma speaker – illustrates the introduction of Russian lexemes and constructions into Komi via codeswitching and borrowing.
