Armenian as a Language of Diaspora and a Foreign Language (the Example of the Armenian Community of St. Petersburg)

For the first time, the research “Armenian as a language of Diaspora and a foreign language (the example of the Armenian community of St. Petersburg)” in detail examines the current state of the Armenian language in the Russian-speaking environment. In the three chapters of the collective monograph, the problems, means, and methods of teaching Armenian as a native, foreign, or second language are analysed and presented, and the existing challenges are highlighted. The collective monograph is addressed to our compatriots living in Armenia and the Diaspora, who value the role and importance of the Armenian language in the Russian-speaking environment for the preservation of Armenian identity and Armenian Studies, are interested in the language situation of the Armenian Diaspora, and are interested in studying and teaching Armenian. It can also be useful to foreigners interested in studying and teaching Armenian.
