30343 Erzya 100000 "Statistically, there has been a marked fall in the Erzya population. Based on data from the latest All-Russian census (2002) the “Mordvin” population is recorded as 0.84 million. If we adhere to the commonly held belief that the Erzya comprise two-thirds of that total, or a generous half a million people, we will arrive at the equivalent of a native-speakers’ figure... A slightly higher figure is provided by the Ethnologue report online with a world-wide Erzya population of 696,630." Adnominal Person in the Morphological System of Erzya Off ~500,000 100000
