OverviewThe area around the Baltic Sea has for millennia been a meeting-place for people of different origins. Among the circum-Baltic languages, we find three major branches of Indo-European - Baltic, Germanic and Slavic, the Baltic-Finnic languages from the Uralic phylumand several others. The circum-Baltic area is an ideal place to study area and contact phenomena in languages. The present set of two volumes look at the circum-Baltic languages from a typological, area and historical perspective, trying to relate the intricate patterns of similarities and dissimilarities to the societal background. In this volume, selected phenomena in the grammars of the circum-Baltic languages are studied in a cross-linguistic perspective.
