Home›Eurasian Language Families›Macro-area›Uralic Language FamilyGroupUralic Language FamilyThe Uralic language family unites Hungarian, Finnish and Estonian, its most widely spoken members, with the numerically smaller Sami, Mordvinic, Mari, Permic, Ugric and Samoyedic branches spoken across northern Russia and Siberia. This group holds every Eurasian Language Families member whose sourced description identifies it as Uralic, Finno-Ugric or a named branch or classification hypothesis within that family, including the family's own disputed internal subdivisions such as the Finno-Permic and Finno-Volgaic proposals and its more distant, largely rejected Uralo-Siberian extension.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonPrimary RegionWell-attestedNorthern Eurasia 1Browse ByAll Uralic Language FamilyUralic Language Family14 entriesUralic Language FamilyFilter Results14 entriesParent Family (Classification Tree)AllUralic (1)Speaker Count BandAll24,600 to 795,000 (3)592 to 23,000 (1)798,400 to 3,238,000,000 (2)RegionAllAsia (10)Eastern Europe (1)Europe (10)Northern Europe (2)Siberia (4)The Arctic (1)Reconstructed AncestorAllReconstructed (3)Classification StatusAllEstablished (4)Number of LanguagesAll2 (1)16 to 1,408 (1)3 to 5 (1)6 to 15 (1)In GroupAllUralic Language Family (14)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 14Eskimo-Uralic languagesEurasian Language FamiliesFinno-Permic languagesEurasian Language FamiliesFinno-Samic languagesEurasian Language FamiliesFinno-Ugric languagesEurasian Language FamiliesFinno-Volgaic languagesEurasian Language FamiliesKhantyEurasian Language FamiliesMordvinicEurasian Language FamiliesOb-UgricEurasian Language FamiliesPermicEurasian Language FamiliesSamiEurasian Language FamiliesSamoyedicEurasian Language Families1 linkUgricEurasian Language FamiliesUralicEurasian Language Families4 linksUralic-Yukaghir hypothesisEurasian Language FamiliesSources1.
