Methodological issues needed to assess factors that condition convergence in contact superposition zones, or that otherwise lead to differentiation among related varieties, are discussed. Against this backdrop synthetic surveys of major and minor Finnic languages are provided, followed by corpus-based case studies on morphosyntactic phenomena. The volume thus presents both a synthetic compendium and a series of specific up-to-date studies, with special attention to micro-variation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Björn Wiemer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3111165167\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783111165165\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter Mouton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 596\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Björn Wiemer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46961989943551,"sku":"9783111165165","price":280.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1100f3a4-8e03-4031-b3d8-f9f3dd793226.jpg?v=1750648990","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/convergence-and-divergence-in-the-bjzirn-wiemer-9783111165165","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
