This book includes twelve articles that present new research on the Finnic and Baltic languages spoken in the southern and eastern part of the Circum-Baltic area. It aims to elaborate on the various contact situations and (dis)similarities between the languages of the area. Taking an areal, comparative, or sociolinguistic perspective, the articles offer new insights into the grammatical, semantic, pragmatic, and textual patterns of different types of predicates or nouns or consider the variation of grammatical categories from a typological perspective. The qualitative analyses find support in quantitative data collected from language corpora or written sources, including those representing the less studied varieties of the area.

Helle Metslang is a professor emerita at the University of Tartu, Estonia. Her research interests include morphosyntax, language variation, historical sociolinguistics, and typology.

Miina Norvik is a research fellow in Finnic languages at the University of Tartu. Her research interests include syntax, language contacts, and typology.

Andra Kalnača is a professor and senior researcher at the University of Latvia in Riga. Her research interests include morphology, morphosyntax, evidentiality, modality, and typology.
