ThisFinnoUgric

ThisFinnoUgric is a term that sometimes appears in discussions concerning the Finno-Ugric languages and peoples. It is not a formal linguistic or ethnographic designation but rather a constructed term used in specific contexts, often online or in informal discussions, to refer collectively to the Finno-Ugric family or its speakers. The Finno-Ugric languages form a branch of the Uralic language family, spoken by a variety of peoples primarily in Northern Europe and Siberia. This group includes languages such as Finnish, Estonian, Hungarian, Sami languages, and various languages spoken by smaller groups like the Mari, Udmurt, and Komi.

The use of "ThisFinnoUgric" can sometimes be employed to highlight shared cultural or linguistic heritage, or to draw attention to the specific issues or characteristics associated with this diverse group of people. It is important to note that the term itself does not represent a unified political or cultural entity. Instead, it serves as a shorthand way to group together languages and populations that share a common linguistic ancestry. Understanding the scope of the Finno-Ugric family is crucial for appreciating the linguistic diversity and historical connections within this region. The term "ThisFinnoUgric" is a colloquialism rather than a scientific classification.
