Alaskan Russian, known locally as Old Russian, is a dialect of Russian, influenced by Alutiiq, spoken by elderly people of mixed Russian–Alutiiq descent on Kodiak Island and in Ninilchik (Kenai Peninsula), Alaska. It has been isolated from other varieties of Russian for over a century. Kodiak Russian was natively spoken on until the Great Alaskan earthquake and tsunami of 1964. It is now moribund, spoken by only a handful of elderly people, and virtually undocumented.
