Descripción
Sumario:Modern contact linguistics has primarily focused on contact between languages that are genetically unrelated and structurally distant. This compendium of articles looks instead at the effects of pre-existing structural congruency between the affected languages at the time of their initial contact, using the Romance and Slavic languages as examples.

Notas:Avoiding typological affinity: "negative borrowing" as a strategy of Corsican norm findingSociolinguistic and areal factors promoting or inhibiting convergence within language families.
