remis asked: ayano23: languages don't need to have a common vocabulary in order to be related. If you have a good look at the Finnish grammar and then compare it to Hungarian grammar, you'll see tons of similarities (agglutination, complex case system, lack of grammatical gender, etc. Read en (.) wikipedia (.) org/wiki/Uralic_languages#Typology). Also, read the second paragraph of this: en (.) wikipedia (.) org/wiki/Finno-ugric#Classification_disputes, it explains a lot about the classification issues.
