Searching the Traces of Middle Low German in Latvian Proper Names
2021
Searching the traces of Middle Low German in Latvian proper names The great impact of Middle Low German on the Latvian language during the 13 th –16 th centuries is a well-known and rather widely researched fact. However, the main focus of linguists’ attention has so far been on the apellative vocabulary.

This article discusses the biligualistic legal system in Macau. The discussion begins with the outline of the history of the Macanese bilingualism.
