The Sino-Uralic studies conclude that there are shared etymological
units
between Chinese and Uralic, mainly Finnic, languages.
These shared etymological units can be results of common grounds of the ancestors in the Neolithic Age
(according to
Gao 2008,
2012). |
The Sino-Germanic studies conclude that there are common
etymological units between Chinese and Indo-European, mainly Germanic,
languages. These shared
etymological units can be
results of: (1) a Germanic branch flow into Primitive
Chinese in the Chalcolithic Age (according to Gao 2008,
2012); (2) prehistoric contacts of the ancestors in
the Late Neolithic Age (according to Chang 1988); or (3) common grounds of the ancestors in
the past (according to Tan 2001, Zhou
2002). |
