Spread of Karelian in the 20th century.

The Tver Karelian dialect is a dialect of the Karelian language spoken in the Tver Oblast. It is descended from 17th century South Karelian speakers who migrated to the Tver region.[1][2]

Although Tver Karelian descents from Karelian Proper, it often contains many differences from other Karelian Proper dialects.[3] The Tver Karelian dialect contains very strong influences from the Russian language, especially in the phonetics of the dialect.[4]

A standardized written language has been created for the Tver dialect.[5] And the earliest translation of the Bible in Karelian was made using the Tver dialect in 1820.[6]
