Nikolai Ivanovich Ashmarin (Russian: Никола́й Ива́нович Ашма́рин) (September 22 [O.S. October 4] 1870, Yadrin, Kazan Governorate – August 26, 1933, Kazan) was a Russian scholar who specialized in the study of Chuvash language, culture, and history. His magnum opus is "The Dictionary of Chuvash Language", published in 17 parts between 1928 and 1958. He was also a Doctor of Turkology (1925).[1][2]
