Re: Proposal of a name for a possible family

Not so fast Danny. A computer just might have one up on you.

According to HOLLIS (the early 1990s version) and Sergei Arutiunov:

Finnic

Baltic (western)

Finnish

Estonian

Karelian

Ingrian

Vote

Permian (eastern)

Komi-Zyrian

Komi-Perian

Udmurt

Volgaic (southern)

Mordvian

Mari

Lapp/Saami (northern)

Ugric

Hungarian

Mansi

Khanty

Thus we have the Finno Ugric subfamily of the Uralic family. Hope you concur.

Aw jeez... one more correction I need to make for Finnic:

Finnic

Baltic (Finnish, Estonian, Karelian)

Volga (Mari, Mordvin)

There may be a third sub-branch of this.

Now I'm pretty much satisfied.

Uralic-Yukaghir

    Finno-Ugric

      Finnic (Finnish, Estonian, Karelian etc.)

      Ugric (Hungarian, Ostyak, Mansi)

      Sámi (or Lappish)
