In this new volume the authors, joined by Maria Polinsky, extend the time frame back to 1900 and forward to \u003cem\u003eglasnost\u003c\/em\u003e in the mid 1980s. They first consider changes in the pronunciation, morphology, syntax, and vocabulary of the language and then examine the effects of social change on the language in chapters on the changing status of women, modes of address and speech etiquette, and orthography. They show that changes in all these areas have been very substantial, and explore the extent to which the standard language, as portrayed in dictionaries and grammars, coincides with the actual usage--both spoken and written--of educated Russians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernard Comrie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e OUP Oxford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.81h x 5.71w x 1.07d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198240662\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OUP Oxford","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44114203934835,"sku":"9.7802E+12","price":224.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_f87566e0-3ab9-422e-8670-12e6edc55bb2.jpg?v=1764162256","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-russian-language-in-the-twentieth-century-9780198240662","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
