	THE NGANASANS
		No separate dictionary of the language exists though some lexical material is to be found in A. Joki's dictionary of the Northern Samoyedic languages (Kleinere Wörterverzeichnisse aus dem Jurak-, Jenissei- und Tawgy-Samojedischen, 1956).
		In the course of time the differentiation process among the Northern Samoyedic languages continued, induced directly by geographical dispersion and the economically and culturally isolated position of Taymyr.
		The research of the Nganasans has for a long time been part of Samoyedic studies in general.

	East Asian Studies 210 Notes: Samoyeds
		Selkups, like other, more northerly Samoyedic peoples, show signs of having intermixed with other peoples who already inhabited the northern lands.
		The Samoyedic language group is distantly related to Finnish and Hungarian.
		Of these southern Samoyedic peoples, only the Selkup remain; the other tribes merged with the Turkic peoples and later with the Russians, losing their language and culture in the process.

		The Uralic languages are a family of about 20 related languages spoken by circa 20 million people in eastern and northern Europe and in northwestern Asia.
		There is some debate about a possible relationship between the family as a whole and the Altaic languages; a few scholars also consider the Uralic languages to be related to the Indo-European languages, see also Nostratic language.
		The most spoken members of the family are Hungarian, Finnish, and Estonian, all of the Finno-Ugric branch.

	Finno-Ugrian languages
		The Finno-Ugrian or Uralic language family includes a group of languages (mainly) in northern Eurasia.
		Since language is not inherited genetically, linguistic relationship does not necessarily imply a genetic relationship between speakers (no more than there is, for example, between all the speakers of present-day Indo-European languages).
		Other Finno-Ugrian languages are smaller, practically all of them more or less endangered.

		The language of the Nenets belongs to the Samoyedic branch of the Uralic languages, comprising together with the Enets and Nganasan languages its Northern Group.
		As the territorially widespread tongue of the most numerous Samoyedic people, Nenets has served as a kind of lingua franca, and it is a common or secondary language for the peoples of the Polar-Ural region.
		The structure and basic vocabulary of the language are descended from the common Samoyedic foundation.
