In this detailed survey of Finnish, Hungarian, Lapp and the other Uralic languages, Angela Marcantonio demonstrates that there is on fact no scientific evidence to support the belief that they form a genetic family. Aimed a general linguists as well as Uralic specialists, this book examines the history, phonology, morphology, lexicon and onomastics of the Uralic language. Her detailed analysis contributes to the ongoing debate surrounding the suitability of the Comparative Methods and its alternatives to establish language relations, and will have far-reaching consequences for other assumed language families.","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47990361587941,"sku":"NP9780631231707","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780631231707.jpg?v=1761787513","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/the-uralic-language-family-isbn-9780631231707","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
