  3. A right to erase every other voter’s name
  4. A free extract of the registered person’s own information Correct answer.

Explanation

The exception allows the registered person a free extract concerning their own recorded information. It is narrower than a copy of all other people’s records. Read this as the meaning of the supplied dated passage, not as a current legal determination.

  2. Only a foreign court’s instruction
  3. Only a request by an employer
  4. An automatic change after every unrelated letter

Question 44Reading attested Skolt texts through actors, conditions and evidence

Published 2025 draft text, §25 b: «Jõs oummu lââʹzztet vaal-loǥstõʹǩǩe, suʹnne âlgg mââʹjeeǩani vuõltteed 24 §:st jurddum iʹlmmtõskoort.» What follows addition to the register?

  2. Send the specified notification card without delay Correct answer.
  3. Wait until the next century to communicate
  4. Send the person another voter’s ballot choice

Question 45Reading attested Skolt texts through actors, conditions and evidence

Published 2025 draft text, §26: «Vuõiǥeemkaiʹbbjõõzz âlgg muuttâsooccâmluʹvddkååʹddest mââʹjeeǩani tååimted vaal-luʹvddkådda.» What action does the passage require?

  2. Translate every request into Latin before any delivery
  3. Replace the request with an unrelated blank ballot
  4. Forward the request promptly to the election committee Correct answer.

Explanation

The text describes transfer from the review body to the election committee without delay. Its direction and timing are both part of the meaning. Read this as the meaning of the supplied dated passage, not as a current legal determination.

Question 46Reading attested Skolt texts through actors, conditions and evidence

Published 2025 draft text, §27: «Juõʹǩǩ jiõnstemvuõiggâdvuõttneǩ vuäǯǯ vuässõõttâd tåʹlǩ õõut võboršeeʹǩǩ piijjmõʹšše.» Which restriction is expressed by tåʹlǩ õõut?

  3. Participation in nominating every candidate
  4. Only one voter may participate in the whole election

Explanation

Tåʹlǩ õõut means only one in this nomination context. The restriction is per eligible voter and does not reduce the entire electorate to one participant. Read this as the meaning of the supplied dated passage, not as a current legal determination.

Question 47Reading attested Skolt texts through actors, conditions and evidence

Published 2025 draft text, §27: «Võboršeǩloǥstõõǥǥ âlgg õlmstâʹtted, vuõltteed vaaläʹššoummid da ââʹnned vaali ääiʹj vueiʹnnemnalla.» Which combination of actions is listed?

  2. Display only private financial records of voters
  3. Publish the candidate list, send it to agents and display it during elections Correct answer.
  4. Keep the list secret from agents and voters

Explanation

Published 2025 draft text, §28: «Vaalid tååimtet pååʹšt mieʹldd leʹbe tååimteeʹl jiõnstemliipp muđoi ko pååʹšt mieʹldd vaal-luʹvddkååʹdd iʹlmmtem päikka.» Which delivery alternatives are stated?

  2. Only by reading the vote aloud at home
  3. Only by a bank transfer without election documents
  4. By post or otherwise delivering the ballot to the announced place Correct answer.

Explanation

The source contrasts postal carriage with another delivery route to the committee’s announced location. It does not describe public disclosure of the chosen candidate. Read this as the meaning of the supplied dated passage, not as a current legal determination.

Question 49Reading attested Skolt texts through actors, conditions and evidence

Published 2025 draft text, §30: «Jiõnsteei âlgg čiõlggsânji mieʹrǩǩeed jiõnstemliʹppe tõn võboršeeʹǩǩ nââmar, koon pueʹrren son oudd jiõnâs.» Which mark is described?

  2. Write only the voter’s bank account number
  3. Leave the ballot blank and sign another person’s name

  1. Exactly one polling place across the whole country
  2. No polling place in any municipality
  3. One voter for every polling place
  4. At least one polling place in each municipality Correct answer.

Explanation

The sentence combines each municipality with at least one polling place. A minimum does not rule out additional places, and it is not a countrywide single-place rule. Read this as the meaning of the supplied dated passage, not as a current legal determination.
