Klavdiya Plotnikova

Klavdiya Zakharovna Plotnikova-Andzhighatova (, ; c. 1893 – 20 September 1989

Plotnikova-Andzhighatova did not have the opportunity to speak Kamassian after 1950 because she did not know anyone else who could speak it. Despite that, her Kamassian skills were fairly good, and she was a great help to philologists for the rest of her life. Plotnikova-Andzhighatova spoke fluent Russian, which she had learned in early childhood. With the decline of her native language, Russian became her only language. This affected her Kamas skills, especially her pronunciation, vocabulary, and sentence structures. Russian influence especially showed in her sentence structures and use of vocabulary; many morphologic forms and syntactic structures fell into disuse.

Legacy In October 2023, an information stand was installed by a group of enthusiasts at the initiative of the chairman of the Malinovskoye Rural Settlement in memory of Plotnikova in the village of Abalakovo.
