This book challenges that view, taking a deep dive into the East Baltic lexicon and peeling away the layers of prehistoric borrowings in the process. As well as significant contact events with known languages, the lexicon also reveals evidence of contact with unattested languages from which previous populations must have shifted.Language and Linguistics E-Books Online, Collection 2024.Leiden Studies in Indo-European ;24.Baltic languagesForeign elementsBaltic languagesHistoryBaltic languagesForeign elements.Baltic languagesHistory.491/.9Jakob Anthony1732406NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910838177503321A History of East Baltic Through Language Contact4146426UNINA
