Hunnic language : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hunnic language
The Hunnic language, or Hunnish, was the language spoken by Huns in the Hunnic Empire, a heterogeneous, multi-ethnic tribal confederation which ruled much of Eastern Europe and invaded the West during the 4th and 5th centuries. A variety of languages were spoken within the Hun Empire.〔Blockley, R. C. 1983. ''The Fragmentary Classicising Historians of the Later Roman Empire''. Liverpool: Francis Cairns.; citing Priscus〕 A contemporary reports that Hunnish was spoken alongside Gothic and the languages of other tribes subjugated by the Huns.〔Priscus: ''Byzantine History'', available in the original Greek in Ludwig Dindorf : ''Historici Graeci Minores'' (Leipzig, Teubner, 1870) and available online as a translation by J.B. Bury: ''(Priscus at the court of Attila )''〕〔Wang Shiping, Where Did the Huns Go? http://www.chinesejy.com/yuwen/259/305/2005122925403.html Wang Zu, Scourge of God http://www.amazon.cn/dp/bkbk705875〕〔Lin Gan, A Study of Northern Nationalities in Ancient China http://www.amazon.cn/dp/zjbk600291 〕 Evidence for the language is very limited, consisting almost entirely of proper names. Hunnic language cannot be classified at present, but due to proper names origin it has been compared mainly with Turkic and Mongolian. == Corpus == Contemporary observers of the European Huns, such as Priscus and the 6th century historian Jordanes, preserved three words of the language of the Huns: Words ''medos'', a beverage akin to mead, ''kamos'', a barley drink, and ''strava'', a funeral feast, are of satemised Indo-European origin. They may be of Slavic, but also Germanic and Iranian origin. Maenchen-Helfen argued that ''strava'' may have come from an informant who spoke Slavic.
