This is the online supplement to “Small-scale multilingualism through the prism of lexical borrowing”.

Files: Data and Scripts

This part of the project consists of the following files:

• tests_and_visualizations_IJB.Rmd — the R code for visualizations and statistical tests.
• tests_and_visualizations_IJB.html — an HTML page rendered on the basis of the .Rmd file.
• words_IJB_submission.tsv — the wordlists.
• meta_anon.tsv — metadata for the wordlists.
• Villages.tsv - the list of Villages of data collection.
• Multilingualism.tsv - multilingualism data.
• bibliography.bib - bibliography for the Rnotebook, contains the references for R packages.

The file tests_and_visualizations.Rmd creates the HTML version of the R-Notebook. The files words_IJB_submission.tsv and meta_anon.tsv have to be in the same directory as the .Rmd file. The program requires the following software and packages:

The HTML file contains versions of the plots that are slightly different from the ones presented in the paper due to the limitations of the R software. In the published verions of the plots, more convenient legends have been manually created using the Inkscape software, the content of the plots remained the same. Also note that the lines responsible for exporting the plots have been commented out from the .Rmd file. The plots used in the paper are provided here in the Figures folder as separate .svg files with the following names:

• Fig2.svg
• Fig3.svg
• Fig4.svg

Software:

• R and R Studio

R packages:
