'''Nostratic''' is a proposed family conjectured by some [[Verse:Lõis|Lõisian]] linguists, including the Indo-European, Uralic, Inuit, Paleosiberian, [[Siészal]], Semitic, Egyptian and [[Camalic]] languages.

A comprehensive Proto-Nostratic grammar, including a few fables, was sketched by the linguist and doctor [name]. He also proposed an older macrofamily linking Sumerian and South Indian languages ("Austric"), as well as a macrofamily including Sinitic, Na-Dené, Yeniseian and Balkhan. Though Austric is not taken seriously by contemporary linguists, it influenced [conlanger]'s Elvish languages.
