Ugric

In: Finnisch-Ugrische Forschungen, vol. 57 however fails to find support for Finno-Ugric and Ugric, suggesting four lexically distinct branches (Finno-Permic, Hungarian, Ob-Ugric and Samoyedic).

Following an academic debate known as Az ugor-török háború ("the Ugric-Turkic battle"), the Finno-Ugric hypothesis was concluded the sounder of the two, foremost based on work by the German linguist József BudenzSUBST.

Hungarian has traditionally been assigned to a Ugric branch within Uralic/Finno-Ugric, along with the Mansi and Khanty languages of western Siberia ( Khanty–Mansia region), but it is no longer clear that it is a valid group.

Linguistic roots common to both branches of the traditional Finno-Ugric language tree ( Finno-Permic and Ugric ) are distant.

The terminology adopted for this was "Uralic" for the entire family, " Finno-Ugric " for the non-Samoyedic languages (though "Finno-Ugric" has, to this day, remained in use also as a synonym for the whole family).

When the Samoyed languages were determined to be part of the family, it was thought at first that Finnic and Ugric (Finno-Ugric) were closer to each other than to the Samoyed branch of the family, but that now is frequently questioned.

Within Ugric, uniting Mansi with Hungarian rather than Khanty has been a competing hypothesis to Ob-Ugric.

Agricultural words are about 50% r-Turkic and 50% Slavic; pastoral terms are more r-Turkic, less Ugric and less Slavic.

Below are the numbers 1 to 10 in several Finno-Ugric languages.

Danish philologist Rasmus Christian Rask described what he vaguely called "Scythian" languages in 1834, which included Finno-Ugric, Turkic, Samoyedic, Eskimo, Caucasian, Basque and others.

Especially in Finland there has been a growing tendency to reject the Finno-Ugric intermediate protolanguage.

Extending this approach to cover the Samoyedic languages suggests affinity with Ugric, resulting in the aforementioned East Uralic grouping, as it also shares the same sibilant developments.

However, it is not clear if the Aesti mentioned by Tacitus were: (1) a (now-extinct) Baltic people (possibly synonymous with the Brus/Prūsa ), or; (2) a Finno-Ugric people (e.g. modern Estonians ).

In Hungarian, Iranian loans date back to the time immediately following the breakup of Ugric and probably span well over a millennium.

In the past, and occasionally today as well, the term Finno-Ugric was used for the entire Uralic language family.

Janhunen (2007, 2009) citation citation notes a number of derivational innovations in Finno-Ugric, including *ńoma "hare" → *ńoma-la, (vs.

Poppe 1965: 126 Finno-Ugric and Samoyed were eventually grouped in a separate family, known as Uralic (though doubts about its validity long persisted).

Several loans from the Indo-European languages are present in most or all of the Finno-Ugric languages, while being absent from Samoyedic; many others also must be for phonological reasons dated as quite old.
