    1 Preparing a grammar for Beserman Udmurt Timofey Arkhangelskiy ([email protected]) Universität Hamburg / Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Maria Usacheva ([email protected]) Institute of Linguistics, Russian Academy of Sciences Beserman is an endangered unwritten dialect of Udmurt (Uralic > Permic). Its existing descriptions (Teplyashina 1970, Lyukina 2008, 2016) mostly deal with phonology and morphemics. In the talk, we are going to discuss our efforts in preparing a comprehensive Beserman grammar (which is in its initial stages) and present some thoughts on developing grammars for endangered languages in general. This includes primarily collection of data, writing the text and technical infrastructure. 1. Collection of data. Corpora of endangered languages are usually very small and do not contain all the data needed for writing a grammar. One can gather missing data through elicitation, but this method has its limitations. We propose the following workflow: · formulate hypotheses based on material from corpora; · conduct experiments to test them; · use elicitation to gather whatever data remains to be gathered. We use different experimental methods to get different types of texts: referential communication tasks, postscoring of mute cartoons, telling stories based on a series of pictures, adopting games, etc. The experimental texts are transcribed and sound-aligned in ELAN with the help of the native speakers. 2. Writing the text. When writing any kind of text, it is very important to keep in mind its target audience. Unfortunately, there are several target audiences in our case, who require different data and structure. For example, typologists need plenty of glossed examples and a very detailed text in English; syntactitians need examples (both positive and negative) which illustrate outcomes of syntactic tests; regional linguists from Russia who work with Permic languages need a text in Russian and terminology based on Russian linguistic tradition, etc.

  • Capillary Oscillations and Stability of a Charged, Viscous Drop in a Viscous Dielectric Medium A
    TECHNICAL PHYSICS VOLUME 43, NUMBER 9 SEPTEMBER 1998 Capillary oscillations and stability of a charged, viscous drop in a viscous dielectric medium A. I. Grigor’ev, S. O. Shiryaeva, and V. A. Koromyslov Yaroslavl State University, 150000 Yaroslavl, Russia ~Submitted March 28, 1997! Zh. Tekh. Fiz. 68, 1–8 ~September 1998! The scalarization method is used to obtain a dispersion relation for capillary oscillations of a charged, conducting drop in a viscous, dielectric medium. It is found that the instability growth rate of the charged interface depends substantially on the viscosity and density of the surrounding medium, dropping rapidly as they are increased. In the subcritical regime the influence of the viscosity and density of both media leads to a nonmonotonic dependence of the damping rate of the capillary motions of the liquid on the viscosity or density of the external medium for a fixed value of the viscosity or density of the internal medium. The falloff of the frequencies of the capillary motions with growth of the viscosity or density of the external medium is monotonic in this case. © 1998 American Institute of Physics. @S1063-7842~98!00109-3# INTRODUCTION ]u~a! 1 52 ¹p~a!1n~a!Du~a!; a51,2, ~1! ]t ~a!

The Alexander Column was surrounded by a decorative bronze fence about 1.5 meters tall, made on the project of Auguste Montferrand. The fence is decorated with 136 double headed eagles and 12 captured guns (4 corners and 2 flank the double gates to the four sides of the fence), that are crowned with three-headed eagles. Between them were placed alternating spears and flagpoles banners topped with double-headed eagles. In addition, the project involved the installation of chandeliers with brass lanterns, and gas lighting. The fence in its original form was established in 1834, and with all the elements it was completed in 1837.

On the other hand, we can say with confidence conflicts about such a global trend as the preservation and development of lingua-franca minority languages. As a result of the research the author makes a well-founded conclusion that giving the status of state to a large number of languages in Russia does not guarantee political stability and national security. The growing influence and dominance of the world's major languages is inevitable. But, first, among them, the position of the Russian language should be restored, and secondly, the desire to create a single global language-a utopian and destructive phenomenon.
