    • 1936, V. I. Junus, Iƶoran Keelen Grammatikka‎, Leningrad: Riikin Ucebno-pedagogiceskoi Izdateljstva, page 3:
      Naapurikeeliin, suomen, viron ja vadjan keeliin kera iƶoran keeli ono siottu oman strukturan, fonettisen, äänisostavan, kautta, mut iƶoran keeleel ono suur yhtehös i karjalan keelen kera.
      The Ingrian language is related to its neighbouring languages, Finnish, Estonian and Votic, through [its] own structure, that of phonetics, the inventory of sounds, but the Ingrian language has a strong connection with the Karelian language, too.
