[edit] Bosnian

Bosnian should be added to the list. --PaxEquilibrium 21:47, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Languages of the Caucasus

Why is the clarification "This group is not assumed to comprise genetically related subgroups" needed here? Do the peoples speaking the languages in question really hate each others so much that they are very afraid that somebody might think languages indicate "genetic" relationship? Sigh... --TorLillqvist 05:49, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

I would rather suggest that the languages are not genetically related, i.e., they have evolved separately, cf comparative linguistics: "Genetic relatedness implies a common origin or proto-language [...]".  Andreas  (T) 19:46, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
