| Description | This article investigates gender variation and change in the grammatical gender system of the indrefinnmarksmal dialect. The interior of Finnmark county, Indre Finnmark, has historically been closely linked to the Finno-Ugric population. The coexistence of Norwegian as a representative of the Indo-European languages and Sámi or Kven as representatives of the Uralic languages may have resulted in several specific features. In this article, I focus on morphological features related to grammatical gender. |
