The following article deals with A. R. Bomhard’s latest attempts to reconstruct “Proto-Nostratic” (which forms a synthesis of Nostratic proto-language as proposed by the Nostraticists of the “Moscow Nostratic school” and J. H. Greenberg’s “Eurasiatic”) in a somehow ironical way. Bomhard claims to have reconstructed the phonology as well as the vocabulary and morphology of this supposed macro-family in his bulky two-volume-work. The reviewer criticizes this especially the methodological weakness of these attempts.}, doi = {10.4467/20843836SE.15.019.2805}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/studia-etymologica-cracoviensia/artykul/zur-rekonstruktion-des-proto-nostratischen-oder-wie-man-eine-anti-omnicomparatistische-kampfschrift-verfasst} }
