In the tree model of historical linguistics, a proto-language is a postulated ancestral language from which a number of attested languages are believed to have descended by evolution, forming a language family.Proto-languages are usually unattested, or partially attested at best. They are reconstructed by way of the comparative method.. In the family tree metaphor, a proto …

The (late) Proto-Indo-European language (PIE) is the linguistic reconstruction of a common ancestor of the Indo-European languages, as spoken by the Proto-Indo-Europeans after the split-off of Anatolian and Tocharian. PIE was the first proposed proto-language to be widely accepted by linguists. Far more work has gone into reconstructing it than ...

Jan 01, 2016 · Results of the Bayesian analyses of Proto-Indo-European tales. Posterior probabilities for the presence/absence of tales reconstructed in Proto-Indo-European were obtained from a most recent common ancestor analysis, performed in B ayes T raits (v. 2) . The relative support for each possibility was further assessed by a fossil test.

Proto-Uralic is the unattested reconstructed language ancestral to the modern Uralic language family.The hypothetical language is believed to have been originally spoken in a small area in about 7000–2000 BCE, and expanded to give differentiated Proto-Languages.Some newer research has pushed the "Proto-Uralic homeland" east of the Ural Mountains into Western …

Languages of the Indo-European family are classified as either centum languages or satem languages according to how the dorsal consonants (sounds of "K", "G" and "Y" type) of the reconstructed Proto-Indo-European language (PIE) developed. An example of the different developments is provided by the words for "hundred" found in the early attested Indo …
