Huns and Xiongnu Identified by Hungarian and Yeniseian Shared Etymologies
Pages 41 - 48
DOI https://doi.org/10.13173/centasiaj.56.2013.0041
This paper has identified ten Hungarian and Yeniseian shared etymologies relating to basic
vocabulary, and observes that a regular sound change occurs in three Hungarian and Yeniseian
etymologies. The regular sound change validates the etymological connection between Hungarian and
Yeniseian. Such shared etymologies between Hungarian and Yeniseian support a Hunnic continuity which
includes the historical Xiongnu, the Huns, the Hunnic substratum of Hungarian and the attested
Yeniseian languages.
此文相比正有十條匈牙利及葉尼塞語言共有的語源單位皆屬基本詞彙，還識別出一項涉及其中三條語源單位的語音對應規律。
此語音對應規律有效驗證匈牙利語及葉尼塞語言的語源關係。
而匈牙利及葉尼塞語言共有的語源單位亦支持
了匈奴的古今存續，其涵蓋歷史上的匈奴、西遷匈奴暨歐洲匈人、匈牙利的匈人層次以及現實上的葉尼塞語言。
