Externally motivated change

Externally motivated changes arise from contact between speakers of different varieties. Normally the contact varieties are closely related, but contact between speakers of mutually incomprehensible languages has also in some cases led to significant structural change. An early study by Gumperz and Wilson showed how regular and prolonged contact between speakers of Kannada, Marathi and Urdu in Kupwar, India, brought about significant convergence between the languages at the syntactic level, even though their lexicons remained distinct.
