| | Kalmyk people - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Ironically, by the early 1690s, the Dzungar (successor state to the Dörben Oirat) attacks against the Eastern Mongols were so persistent and ferocious, the Eastern Mongol princes voluntarily led their people and Outer Mongolia into submission to the Manchu state. | | | Towards that end, Kalmyk khuruls (temples) and monasteries were destroyed and property confiscated; the clergy and many believers were harassed, killed, or sent to labor camps; religious artifacts and books were destroyed; and young men were prohibited from religious training. | | | As a result, the Kalmyk language was not formally taught to the younger generation of Kalmyks. |

| | The modern Ukrainian alphabet is the result of a number of proposed alphabetic reforms from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, in Ukraine under the Russian Empire, in Austrian Galicia, and later in Soviet Ukraine. | | | The Ukrainian language was formed by mixing and convergence of tribal dialects mostly due to intensive migration of the population within the territory of today's Ukraine in the later historical periods. | | | Before the eighteenth century the precursor to the modern Ukrainian language was a vernacular language used mostly by peasants and petit bourgeois, existing side-by-side with a literary language of foreign origin, the Church Slavonic evolved from the Old Slavonic language from Bulgaria. |

| | FLEMISH LITERATURE - LoveToKnow Article on FLEMISH LITERATURE |
| | For some years before 1830 Jan Frans Willems (1793-1846) had been advocating the claims of the Flemish language. | | | The provisional government of 1830 suppressed the official use of the Flemish language, which was relegated to the rank of a patois. | | | The claims put forward by the Flemish school were justified by the appearance (1837) of In t rVonderjaar 1566 (In the Wonder- ful year) of Hendrik Conscience (q.v.), who roused national enthusiasm by describing the heroic struggles of the Flemings against the Spaniards. |
