  • An areal-etymological approach to semantic reconstruction of Proto-Uralic kin terms

    Open Access•Niklas Metsäranta, Veronika Milanova et al.•ARTICLE•Finnisch-Ugrische Forschungen•2025

    Languages vary in how they order their kin terms. Kin terms and systems in Uralic languages have changed considerably over time, which has caused challenges for the reconstruction of Proto-Uralic kin terms. There are terms that cannot be reconstructed altogether, terms that can be fairly reliably reconstructed both phonologically and semantically, and terms that, while being easily reconstructed phonologically, exhibit semantic variation that is …

  • Kinship Terminologies of the Circum-Baltic Area

    Open Access•Veronika Milanova, Niklas Metsäranta et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Language Contact•2024•References: 9

    Contact and areal studies of kinship terminologies have by now received too little attention in social anthropology and linguistics. To fill in one of numerous research gaps, we investigated kinship terminologies of the Circum-Baltic ( CB ) area. We discovered many heterogeneous overlapping micro- and macro-convergences belonging to different temporal strata and contact situations. This was especially the case with loanwords, whereas certain calq…

  • Borrowability of kinship terms in Uralic languages

    Open Access•Niklas Metsäranta, Veronika Milanova et al.•ARTICLE•Finnisch-Ugrische Forschungen•2023

    Kinship terms are assumed to be universal and central to social life, and consequently they are not particularly prone to borrowing. Borrowing of kinship terms does happen, however, and this provides us a lens with which to evaluate the nature and intensity of contact situations. In this study, we provide a general overview of the borrowability of kinship terms into the Uralic languages. We collected kinship terms from twenty Uralic languages and…
