Meadow Mari, also known as Meadow-Eastern Mari, or Eastern Mari, is a standardised dialect of the Mari language used by about half a million people mostly in European Russia. Meadow Mari, Hill Mari, and Russian are official languages in the republic of Mari El in the Russian Federation.[3]

Meadow Mari and Eastern Mari are distinct language varieties, which both use the Meadow Mari literary standard.[4] The main differences between Meadow Mari and Hill Mari are phonological, and to a lesser extent, morphological.[5]
