Типы праязыков ностратической (в широком смысле) филы

Фонетико-грамматические обзоры по афразийским и евразийским праязыкам

[an error occurred while processing this directive] [an error occurred while processing this directive]

Здесь представлены краткие справки по фонетике и грамматике языков Ностратической суперсемьи, взятые с проекта глобальной этимологической базы данных "Вавилонская башня", основанную Сергеем Анатольевичем Старостиным. Эти сведения будут затем размещаться в каждом праязыковом этимологическом словнике.

Сама же база по ностратической этимологии составлена С. А. Старостиным по основным ностратическим словарям (Иллич-Свитыч, Долгопольский, Бомхард). Она включает также ряд новых этимологий, предложенных самим С. А. Старостиным и другими участниками Московской школы компаративистики. База находится в довольно сыром состоянии, т. к. в сравнительной фонологии ностратических языков остается еще немало неясных моментов.

Сергей Анатольевич считал, что собственно ностратическими языками (их он называл "евразийскими") являются все обычно включаемые туда языки, кроме афразийских и эламского. Здесь же принята концепция не в узком, а в широком смысле - с упомянутыми эламским и семито-хамитскими языками.

Всего здесь представлено X языковых систем, происходящих от праностратического языка, распределённых по 13 семьям и изолированным языкам:

Краткие типологические обзоры языков Индо-хеттской семьи (Indo-Hittite)
Краткие типологические обзоры языков Уральской семьи (Uralic)
Краткие типологические обзоры юкагирских языков (Yukaghir)
Краткие типологические обзоры языков Алтайской семьи (Altaic)
Краткие типологические обзоры айнских диалектов (Ainu)
Краткие типологические обзор нивхского языка (Gilyak, Nivx, Nivkh)
Краткие типологические обзоры языков Чукче-камчатской семьи (Chukchi-Kamchatkan)
Краткие типологические обзоры языков Эскимо-алеутской семьи (Eskimo-Aleut)
Краткие типологические обзоры языков Дравидической семьи (Dravidian)
Краткий типологический обзор эламитского языка (Elamite)
Краткие типологические обзоры языков Картвельской семьи (Kartvelian)
Обзоры типов языков, возможно, входящих в Евразийскую макросемью (этрусский)
Краткие типологические обзоры языков Афразийской семьи (Afro-Asiatic)

В базе, правда, юкагирские языки отнесены к уральским, а эламский - к эламо-дравидским (но все остальные дравидские к эламо-дравидским не отнесены).

Языки индоевропейской семьи ведут свою историю от праиндоевропейского языка.

Bokmål reflects the heavy Danish influence during the Middle Ages, while Nynorsk represents an attempt to preserve a 'purer' older form of Norwegian, denuded of Danish borrowings. There is some hostility between the two gruops, but the two varieties of speech are easily mutually intellegible.

Without denying this connection Blazek (2002) points out striking similarities with Afro-Asiatic. Starostin (2002) rejects a close connection with Dravidian and regards Elamite as in some sense intermediate between Nostratic and Afro-Asiatic. The precise position of Elamite is not yet clear.
