Mansi and Daria Zhornik

Episode 25 is here and it's a return to the Finno-Ugric languages with expert linguist Daria Zhornik. The particular member of Finno-Ugric is Mansi (specifically Northern Mansi), spoken in two regions of Russia. Daria both documents and researches this language, and so is full of good information about its history, genealogy, current status, future, and its speakers' very particular and periphrastic ways of talking about animals...Check out Daria's website here: ⁠https://dariazhornik.github.io⁠Host: Danny BateGuest: Daria ZhornikMusic: Bossa Nova by William_KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.
