Siberian dialects are a group of Northern Russian dialects under the serious lexical influence of the Southern Russian dialects and foreign inclusions (primarily Turkic [1] and sometimes Yukaghir and Even). [2] [3] It is spoken by Siberian old-timers: Siberiaks, Chaldons, Kerzhaks, Cossacks, Old Believers, Pokhodchans (Kolymchans), Russian Ustians (Indigirshchiks), and Markovites (Anadyrshchiks).

Contents

From a phonetic and grammatical point of view, Siberian dialects genetically go back to Northern Russian dialects and are characterized by okanye, clear pronunciation of vowels, plosive /g/, absence of /ɕː/ (replaced by long /ʂː/), dropping out vowels (which leads to changes in the adjective declension) and consonants, a variety of pluperfect forms, [4] [5] as well as frequent use of postpositive articles.
