''title:'' An Old Norse–Old English contact phenomenon: the retention of the dative plural inflection //-um// in the Northumbrian dialect of Old English \\ 
''abstract:'' The elements of the oppositions //stasis// and //change, retention// and //loss, insularity// and //openness, close-knit community// and //loose-knit community// all seem to represent the two poles //conservativeness// and //innovativeness,// respectively. It will be shown that when a linguistic system is given an external stimulus via language contact, the conservative and innovative elements of the oppositions can mix, resulting in seemingly conservative elements pairing up with innovative ones. Under these circumstances retention can no longer be regarded a necessarily conservative feature and change can appear to take the shape of stasis. \\
