“…Some areas show both differences and similarities with MSs’ productions. For instance, Brehmer and Usanova (2015) report that verb placement in heritage Russian in Germany is different in SCs compared to monolingual Russian, with an increase in use of the verb in clause-final position, which would be an expected transfer from German. However, main clauses in heritage Russian do not feature more use of the verb in second position (V2, required in German) than those in monolingual Russian.…”

“…Overall, HSs in Germany were found to show a high degree of word order variation in their HL.

HSs in the US, on the other hand, were typically found to increase the use of the SVO order and show a less flexible word order than monolingual speakers (Laleko & Dubinina, 2018;Polinsky, 2006;Isurin & Ivanova-Sullivan, 2008;Isurin, 2005).…”
