Ural-Altaic

Japanese: ウラル･アルタイ語族 - ウラルアルタイごぞく（英語表記）Ural‐Altaic

It is assumed that there is a kinship between the Uralic language family and the Altaic languages, and the term is used as a general term for them, but despite much research, the relationship between the two has not been clarified. Rather, the results of research tend to diffuse rather than consolidate the relationship between the two, and in that sense, the two are language families that should be distinguished.

ウラル語族とアルタイ諸語の間に親族関係を想定し，その総称として用いられるが，多くの研究にもかかわらず，両者の親縁関係は明らかにはなっていない。むしろ研究の成果は，両者の関係を凝集させるよりも拡散させる傾向にあり，その意味で両者は区別されるべき語族である。アルタイ諸語ウラル語族【編集部】
