(Redirected from Proto-Finno-Ugric)'Proto-Finno-Ugric' is the
reconstructed protolanguage for the
Finno-Ugric languages, that is the ancestor of the
Finnic languages, such as
Finnish, and the
Ugric languages, whose best known example is
Hungarian. The parent language is
Proto-Uralic, from which Proto-Finno-Ugric and
Proto-Samoyedic had split. However, this classification is not without problems; Proto-Finno-Ugric may also be interpreted as a geographical grouping of
Proto-Uralic dialects, because the differences are few. It has been suggested that the area where Proto-Finno-Ugric was spoken reached between the
Baltic Sea and the
Ural mountains.
According to Robert Austerlitz, Proto-Finno-Ugric had about seven cases;
nominative,
accusative,
genitive,
locative,
allative,
ablative, and
adverbial.
