Abstract:
Introduction: the article considers the development of the Uralic sonorous consonants in the common Mordovian, modern Mordovian (Moksha and Erzya) languages and their dialects. Information about the use of a group of these consonants in modern Moksha and Erzya word forms is also considered. Taking into account the research of the leading Finno-Ugric experts, the authors of the article express their opinion on the appearance of deaf sonorous consonants R, R’, L, L’, J used in the modern Moksha language along with the sonorous consonants r, r’, l, l’, j. The specific development of the Ural ŋ in the common Mordovian, Moksha and Erzya languages is described. Objective: to give a complete picture of the development of the ancient Ural sonorous consonants in the common Mordovian, Moksha and Erzya languages. Research materials: ancient system of sonorous consonants in the proto-Uralic language (data presented in the works of P. Sammallahti, Z. Keresztes, L. P. Gruzov, as well as in various dictionaries), and sonorous consonants in the common Mordovian, Moksha, and Erzya languages. Results and novelty of the research: the authors consider various points of view of well-known Finno-Ugric scholars (B. Collinder, L. Posti, P. Haidu, P. Sammalahti) about the presence of the system of sonorous in the proto-Uralic language; their development in the common Mordovian, Moksha and Erzya languages is studied. Particular attention is paid to the emergence of «deaf sonorous» consonants in the Moksha language, as well as the use of nasal ŋ in the Mordovian literary languages and their dialects. The study can be used for teaching the discipline «Historical grammar of Mordovian languages». The scientific novelty of the research is that the development of the system of sonorous consonants of the proto-Uralic language in the Mordovian languages is studied for the first time.

Abstract:
Introduction: the authors consider the phonetic features of the subdialect of the Adashevo settlement of the South-Eastern dialect of the Moksha language. They describe such speech processes in the field of vowels and consonants as vowel reduction, consecutive vowels narrowing, devocalization of sonorants, palatalization, etc. The authors study the features of accentuation and consistently compare the South-Eastern dialect with other Moksha language dialects, and show its originality. Objective: to identify and describe the phonetic features of the subdialect of Adashevo settlement of Kadoshkinsky District of the Republic of Mordovia; to show the common and the different in phonetic structure of the subdialect in comparison with other subdialects and dialects of the Moksha language. Research materials: dialect material collected by the authors and Ogarev Mordovia State University students during linguistic expeditions in 2013, 2015 and 2019. Results and novelty of the research: the analysis of the dialect material revealed phonetic features peculiar to the South-Eastern dialect of the Moksha language in general and in particular to the subdialect of Adashevo settlement. Of particular interest is the narrowing of front vowels (*ä > e, *e > i), which in turn leads to the reduction of secondary narrow vowels. Cases of absence of reduction of narrow vowels in the anlaut of a word, which is unusual for other dialects of the South-Eastern dialect, are revealed. Cases of occurrence of positional affricates are described. The phonetic features of the subdialect of Adashevo settlement of the South-Eastern dialect of the Moksha language is being described in detail for the first time which until now has not been the subject of special research. The collected dialect material can be used in the compilation of a dialect dictionary and lexical atlas of the Moksha language. The revealed facts can contribute to the study of the history of the Mordovian languages.

Abstract:
The article analyzes the language situation in the modern Republic of Mordovia (RM), which is a multi-ethnic region. The main ethnic groups in the republic are Russians, Mordovians and Tatars. Mordva is comprised of two subgroups – Erzya and Moksha. The dominance of the Russian language in the republic is obvious, which is due to the assimilation processes that has been taking place in the region for many decades. At the same time, Mordovian languages are taught in the schools of the Republic of Moldova; there are national (Moksha, Erzya, Tatar) schools, national newspapers and magazines, programs on national languages on the republican television and radio. However, ethno-cultural organizations of the Republic of Moldova consider it necessary to further expand state support for the Mordovian and Tatar languages. Among the national intelligentsia, primarily teachers and scholars of philology, there are two main points of view regarding further development of Mordovian languages. The first one supports separate development of the Moksha and Erzya languages. The second one does not actually contradict to it, but considers it necessary to create a unified literary Mordovian language based on the synthesis of Moksha and Erzya. Activists of the Foundation for the Salvation of the Erzyan Language, who consider this move as another step towards the “artificial assimilation” of the Erzyan, strongly oppose this project. The discussion about a single literary Mordovian language has been excessively politicized. Neither the leaders of Mordovia, nor the supporters of such a language aim to enforce it to population. A significant part of the Moksha and Erzya intelligentsia preferred to wait and see rather than oppose to the project. To sum up, the linguistic factor in Mordovia is closely interconnected with the ethno-political situation. At the same time, the identified problems of linguistic situation in the Republic of Moldova did not undermine the high level of ethnic tolerance typical for Mordovia and the entire Volga region.

Abstract:
Introduction. The purpose of the work is to consider synonyms as lexical devices, their communicative and stylistic role in the Moksha language. The subject of the research is synonyms and their functions, the object is the Moksha language. Materials and Methods. The material for the study is the synonyms collected from bilingual and multilingual dictionaries and used in the works of Moksha writers. Results and Discussion. Synonyms in the Moksha language play a certain communicative and stylistic role. Structural, semantic and stylistic features of various types of synonyms are clearly shown in their main functions in the text. Stylistic synonyms, due to the interaction of the emotive and significative aspects of meaning, can cause their semantic “thickening”, therefore they can express a greater degree of quality, properties, actions in comparison with the corresponding neutral words, acting as a means of gradation. Conclusion. The use of synonyms in oral and written speech significantly increases the level of speech culture.

Abstract:
This article examines the relational potential of negative pronouns in the Moksha-Mordovian language. The object of the study is the Insar dialect, which differs from other dialects of the Moksha language in that this category of pronouns is the most numerous in it, and is characterized by large inflection possibilities. The sources of study were used scientific works of domestic and foreign scientists, grammars of Mordovian languages, dialect material collected in the field and stored in the dictionary room of the faculty of Philology. The result of the analysis showed the following: in the Moksha language, negative pronouns are the same indefinite pronouns in verbs with or without negation (more often). The category of negative pronouns has eleven lexemes. If in the literary language negative pronouns do not have relational forms, then in the Insar dialect most of them change according to all three types of declension; agglutination of definiteness and possessiveness formants is carried out in the same sequence as in nouns; the variation of the excretory-amplifying particle within a single paradigm obeys the law of synharmonism. In the absence of a verb, negation, acting as a predicate, takes predicate and subject-object suffixes

Abstract:
Geographical vocabulary existing in ethno-linguistic environment, has a significant impact on the formation of its toponymic nomenclature. This influence is manifested both in the form of toponymic formants and in the basics of geographical names originating from this ethno-linguistic environment. The relevance of this work is definted by the fact that until now geographical vocabulary of the Tornovsky dialect of the Moksha-Mordovian language, as well as other Samara-Bends dialects, was not the subject of special study, and was not introduced into academic and research circulation. The purpose of this article is description and lexico-semantic and etymological analysis of geographical vocabulary of the Tornovsky dialect of the Moksha-Mordovian language. General theoretical and methodological basis of the research was made up of the works of Russian and international researchers on the toponymy and dialectology of the Mordovian languages. Vocabulary data is based on the materials of field research that the author conducted in the village Tornovoe of the Volga district of the Samara region during the field-work in 2017 and 2018. The main methods of linguistic research are descriptive and comparative methods. They were used in the collection and analysis of linguistic material. The results of the study showed that the geographical vocabulary of the Tornovsky dialect of the Moksha-Mordovian language fully reflects all the phonetic and accentual features of this dialect. It was also revealed that there is a fundamental difference between the composition of geographical vocabulary of the Tornovsky dialect and the same vocabulary of the neighboring dialects of the Moksha-Mordvin language, Shelehmetsky and Bahilovsky. A significant part of the geographical vocabulary in tthe Tornovsky dialect is borrowed from the Russian and Turkic Kipchak languages which reflects ethnolinguistic history of its speakers.

Abstract:
Introduction. It is known that relations between the Mordovians and Turkic-speaking tribes began in the 4th century AD. The Mordovian people contacted with the Tatars, who were known as Mishars. The article considers the phonetic systems of Mordovian and Tatar-Mishars language in a comparative aspect. Materials and Methods. Descriptive, typological and comparative methods allow us to analyze the topology of the two phonetic systems. The research material is the system of vowels and consonants of Mordovian and Tatar-Mishars languages. Results and Discussion. The results present the use of vowels and consonants in the Moksha, Erzia, and Tatar-Mishar languages. Their functions are analyzed in both languages. Conclusion. The research materials show that in the use of vowels and consonants can differ not only between Mordovian languages and the language of the Tatars-Mishars, but also between Moksha and Erzia.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to a comprehensive study of the toponymic area of the Moksha-Mordovian Blagodarovka village of the Borsky district of the Samara region. The aim of the article is an introduction into scientific discourse and the etymological analysis of toponymic vocabulary of the Blagodarovka village and its outskirts. The methods of the article are based on the principles of toponymic researches formulated in the works of leading Russian onomasticians. The article is based on the author's experience. As a result of the researches, the main characteristics and dialect belonging of the Blagodarovsky dialect of the Moksha-Mordovian language were determined, the geographical terminology existing in it was fixed, and the toponymic vocabulary was collected and analyzed. It is concluded that Blagodarovsky dialect of the Moksha-Mordovian language, despite a relatively short period of existence in the Russian environment with separation from other Mordovian language areas, is one of the most Russified Mordovian dialects of the Samara Volga region. A number of geographical names of the toponymic area of Blagodarovka find identical or close parallels in most other Moksha-Mordovian and Erzya-Mordovian toponymic areas of the region. The natural and geographical settlement conditions of native Blagodarovsky dialect speakers of the Moksha-Mordovian language as in the case of other Mordovian dialects of the Samara Volga region had a significant impact on the composition and semantics of the geographical terminology that exists in it.

Abstract:
The article deals with the analysis of the geographical toponymic lexicon existing among the Moksha-Mordovian population of the village of Staraya Binaradka in the Krasnoyarsk district of the Samara region. The Moksha-Mordovia geographical toponymic lexicon is characterized by a significant variety even in the dialects of neighboring settlements. It is shown that the formation of a geographical cluster of toponymic vocabulary in the dialects of the Moksha-Mordovian language is primarily influenced by the following factors: local phonetic, morphological and accentual features of the dialect; the historical and modern ethno-linguistic environment of the carriers of the studied dialect; natural and geographical conditions of the environment of the territory of residence of the carriers of the studied dialect. The article presents the results of a comparative analysis of the starobinaradsky geographical terminology area close to the Moksha-Mordvin dialects. Special attention is paid to the bakhilovsky dialect of the Moksha-Mordovian language, as it is known from archival materials that a significant part of the Mordovian population of the Staraya Binaradka was made up of immigrants from the village of Bakhilovo on the left Bank of the Volga river in the first half of the 18th century. The novelty of the research consists in the fact that up to the present time, the geographical toponymy vocabulary of the starobinskoe dialect of the Moksha-Mordvin language has not been introduced into the scientific circulation and has not been analyzed in the context of toponymic research. The study is based on field materials of the author.

Abstract:
Mordvin, a minority language in European Russia, comprises two closely related languages, Erzya and Moksha, differing from each other mainly in phonology and morphology. The Mordvin languages exhibit a high degree of synthesis in nominal and verbal inflection. The ten cases have indefinite and definite forms; the latter are expressed with suffixation of former demonstrative pronouns. Mordvin has only three tenses, but six moods, most of which have merged from the main verb and the verb 'to be'. In the so-called objective or definite conjugation, the personal suffixes express both the person of the subject and that of the object. Mordvin has a rich system of infinitives, participles, and gerunds, functioning also as kernels of clausal constructions. Noun predicates can be conjugated as verbs. Owing to strong Russian influence the basic word order is now SVO. Russian influence can also be seen in the systematic palatalization of consonants before front vowels.

Abstract:
Big languages such as English and Finnish have many natural language processing (NLP) resources and models, but this is not the case for low-resourced and endangered languages as such resources are so scarce despite the great advantages they would provide for the language communities. The most common types of resources available for low-resourced and endangered languages are translation dictionaries and universal dependencies. In this paper, we present a method for constructing word embeddings for endangered languages using existing word embeddings of different resource-rich languages and the translation dictionaries of resource-poor languages. Thereafter, the embeddings are fine-tuned using the sentences in the universal dependencies and aligned to match the semantic spaces of the big languages; resulting in cross-lingual embeddings. The endangered languages we work with here are Erzya, Moksha, Komi-Zyrian and Skolt Sami. Furthermore, we build a universal sentiment analysis model for all the languages that are part of this study, whether endangered or not, by utilizing cross-lingual word embeddings. The evaluation conducted shows that our word embeddings for endangered languages are well-aligned with the resource-rich languages, and they are suitable for training task-specific models as demonstrated by our sentiment analysis models which achieved high accuracies. All our cross-lingual word embeddings and sentiment analysis models will be released openly via an easy-to-use Python library.

Abstract:
In this paper, the ablative case and quantification in the Mordvin languages are addressed, drawing on parallel sentences for various notions associated with ablative and paucal/mass quantification marking. Specific morphology is discussed, and two openly accessible and morpho-syntactically annotated corpora are described: the Tetûrev parallel corpus and the Electronic Resources for Moksha and Erzya (ERME2) corpora. An illustration of semantic nuances of the ablative is provided, as found in the parallel corpus, dealing with divergence in ablative quantificational structures, second only to the “standard of comparison” function. Paucal and mass quantifier patterns, used extensively in Moksha but not in Erzya, are inspected, along with a search for contexts where quantifiers in Moksha occur without an ablative counterpart. Finally, further observations from the Tetûrev parallel corpus are mentioned, potentially leading to new, unaddressed matters of Erzya–Moksha divergence in quantification research.

Abstract:
This paper describes code-switching with Russian in four spoken corpora of minority languages of Russia: two Uralic ones (Hill Mari and Moksha) and two Tungusic ones (Nanai and Ulch). All narrators are bilinguals, fluent both in the indigenous language (IL) and in Russian; all the corpora are comparable in size and genres (small field collections of spontaneous oral texts, produced under the instruction to speak IL); the languages are comparable in structural (dis)similarity with Russian. The only difference concerns language dominance and the degree of language shift across the communities. The aim of the paper is to capture how the degree of language shift influences the strategy of code-switching attested in each of the corpora using a minimal additional annotation of code-switching. We added to each corpus a uniform annotation of code-switching of two types: first, a simple semi-automatic word-by-word language annotation (IL vs. Russian), second, a manual annotation of structural code-switching types (for smaller sub-corpora). We compared several macro-parameters of code-switching by applying some existing simple measures of code-switching to the data of annotation 1. Then we compared the rates of different structural types of code-switching, basing on annotation 2. The results of the study, on the one hand, verify and enhance the existing generalizations on how language shift influences code-switching strategies, on the other hand, they show that even a very simple annotation of code-switching integrated to an existing field records collection appears to be very informative in code-switching studies.
