Our book “Reading Hill Mari through Meadow Mari" aims to lessen the linguistic isolation of Hill Mari by giving students and scholars with a working knowledge of Meadow Mari (the dominant literary standard of Mari, which is accessible through various materials on our website) a contrastive overview of the two literary standards, focusing on systematic differences in phonology and morphology, and thus allowing them to utilize their knowledge of Meadow Mari to read Hill Mari texts as well.

The following resources are under development and will be in 2022 or later:

Hill Mari Dictionary
Hill
