“…One may also encounter the replacement of irregular or otherwise marked morphosyntactic features with more regular, linguistically unmarked forms, and a preference for analytic sentence structures with more rigid word order (Dorian, 1978; Schmidt, 1985a; Campbell and Muntzel, 1989; O'Shannessy, 2011; Palosaari and Campbell, 2011). (3) Increased variability may occur in phonological or morphological realizations (Wolfram, 2004) and can be motivated by contact with a dominant language, as words and structures are borrowed into the dying language, sometimes with specific functional distributions (Campbell and Muntzel, 1989; Dajko and Carmichael, 2014). (4) Rapid change may be driven by the reduction in domains of use, convergence with the dominant language, and use of ‘attritional’ forms by younger and non-fluent speakers (SSs) (Schmidt, 1985a,b; Cook, 1995; Dorian, 1973, 1978; Dubois and Noetzel, 2005).…”
