Macro-Ŋǝltaic, also known as macro-Nguhltaic (English: [mækɹʌwŋɫ̩tejɪk]), Ɱorean (English: [ɱoɹijʌn]) is a language family[disputed] that is an extension of the Ŋǝltaic language family[citation needed]. Its associated root language, Proto-Ɱorean[disputed], is the ancestor[disputed] of approximately half of the languages spoken on the Ŋearth, and it is lauded as an important step in the reconstruction[disputed] of Proto-Ŋorld[disputed].
Generally speaking, the name macro-Ŋǝltaic is preferred by those who think Ŋǝltaic is a primary language family, while the name Ɱorean is preferred by those seeking to find the hypothetical (and often memed upon) "Proto-Ŋorld". However, even in the former community, the name "Proto-Ɱorean" for its proto-language reconstruction is preferred[citation needed], as it is easier to distinguish from Proto-Ŋǝltaic[disputed] (which both camps of macro-Ŋǝltaicists assert is a real language[disputed]).
Structure
Most macro-Ŋǝltaicists assert that regular Ŋǝltaic, which they call "micro-Ŋǝltaic", is a real language family[citation needed], and is simply too closely related to languages not traditionally included in micro-Ŋǝltaic to be ignored. This is the language tree for macro-Ŋǝltaic:
- Proto-Ɱorean
- Proto-Ŋostratic
- Ŋǝurasiatic languages
- Ŋǝltaic languages
- Saxo-Humoric languages
- Pisco-Imerchali languages
- Altaic languages
- Uralic languages
- Yukaghir
- Ŋǝltaic languages
- Ɱaleo-Siberian languages
- Afro-Asiatic languages
- Dravidian languages
- Kartvelian languages
- Sumerian
- Ŋǝurasiatic languages
- Ŋa-Dene-Daic languages
- Proto-Ŋostratic
[1]: Proto-Protogen is generally asserted to be too closely related to Japonic to be in the traditional Ŋǝltaic family[citation needed]. This is despite known evidence that it descends at least in part from 21st Century Humorese, though to this idea's credit, a high degree of creolization is observed across the entirety of Humoric.
