Abstract

The Finnic languages constitute a branch of the Finno-Ugric language family. The number of Finnic languages has been disputed, with estimates ranging from three to nine, but the main etymological dictionaries, such as SSA and LGL, mention the following eight languages: Finnish, Ingrian, Karelian, Lude, Veps, Vote, Estonian and Livonian. The Finnic languages occupy a special position in the research of the Finno-Ugric languages because of their conservative character. Such a conclusion has been reached in loanword research, for which it is assumed that the oldest loanwords can be traced back to the Indo-European proto-language. For a long time the "frozen" character of Finnish has been known among researchers of old Germanic loanwords in the Finnic languages: the reconstructed Germanic forms are found in Finnish almost unaltered, cf. e.g. Finn. kuningas 'king'- Gmc. *kuningaz.
