For the other way round, which of these IE groups was the most
relevant for the Uralic languages, in terms of lexical (et al.)
influences?
[ ] Alans
[ ] Germanic tribes
[ ] Baltic populations
[ ] Proto-Slavs
Thank you.
PS: in the Uralic language Hungarian, there is a significant
part of vocabulary which is deemed as being of (A) Alanic
origin and (B) Persian-Iranic origin (e.g. terms meaning "God
(yazdan/yashtan), lady, gold, silver, green/yellow, bridge,
customs, sword, cart, glass" &c.).
