		While working in an Italian language school in Urbania, Mansi and two of his co-workers were frustrated with the leaders of the Urbania school.
		He prefers teaching at language schools rather than high schools or colleges because the students at language schools are paying to learn Italian rather than being forced to.

		Khanty literal language fixation was characterised by permanent hesitations: this is well illustrated by a small reform of Latin alphabet that took place in 1936 and was inspired by Steinitz: new letters were introduced and others eliminated (Steinitz 1950: 25).
		But literal Mansi is based on the Sosva Dialect, for it was the most widely-spoken dialect, and it was the main communication means in its milieu, which was known for a strong cultural identity (Rombandeyeva 1973: 9).
		During this period, the Russian language is admired and praised with hyperbole; the flood of loan-words in all the languages are evidence of its expansion, and the use of its alphabet confirms this symbolically.

		(e) degree of speakers' competence: used as the community language at the oral level by all speakers, with Modern Written Mongolian as the literary language; grammatical and lexical interference from the latter is occasionally present in the speech of educated individuals
		(ii) published material (of the language): very scarce, the principal sources being connected with an attempt at creating a written standard (in Roman script) for the language in the early 1930s; the written language was liquidated after 1937, however, and recent plans to revigorate it seem to have to come too late
