SORRY FOR ANY DUPLICATES!

Hi all,

We are fortunate to have Artemi Romanov from the Russian department speak
at a future LingCircle. He has two possible presentations, and I would
like your input as to which talk you would prefer.

1) lexical borrowings from English into Russian and the attitude of
Russian speakers toward them

2) the linguistic situation in Latvia and Estonia
revolving around Russian speaking diaspora

Please reply with your preference, so that we can set this in motion.

Thanks,

Mollie Hand
Linda Wu
LingCircle Coordinators

Hi Mollie, Thank you for your invitation. I'd be happy to come to one of
your seminars to talk about my research. I've been involved in two
projects recently. One of them deals with recent lexical borrowings from
English into Russian and the attitude of Russian speakers toward them.
Another one focuses on the linguistic situation in Latvia and Estonia
revolving around Russian speaking diaspora. It's up to you to decide which
one will be more interesting for the participants of the seminar to
discuss. From time to time we have departmental meetings on Wednesdays,
but if you let me know in advance which Wednesday you want me to come,
I'll be able to make it. Thanks, Artemi
