How to read this table
Rows differ by data type: some provide information on specific languages, including foreign languages, while others group responses by nationality. The number of people reporting language proficiency should be compared with the total number of respondents in each nationality group. This helps illustrate the prevalence of various languages among the republic's different ethnic communities, based on the official results of the latest All-Russian Census
What is visible in these numbers
Table columns: Total population; Those who indicated nationality; of whom — Russians; of whom — Mari; of whom — Hill Mari; of whom — Tatars; of whom — Chuvash; of whom — Ukrainians; of whom — Udmurts; of whom — Other nationalities; Nationality not indicated
Cells with numbers: 238 out of 275 (86.5%). Some cells are empty — certain items were not observed in every period
