Synopsis
This detailed study of the history and prehistory of the Japanese and Korean languages in comparison with Altaic (Turkic, Mongol, Tungus), suggests a genetic relationship subsequently proven by evidence from previously ignored or forgotten ancient Japanese and Korean texts. It therefore renders invalid the widely held view that similarities between these languages is attributable to borrowing and not to a proto-Altaic genetic relationship.
