Positions on definitions: Chinese and Uralic languages had common grounds in China in the Neolithic Age. A Far East Germanic language, Gjerma-Djew, contributed a branch flow to Primitive Chinese from western China in the Chalcolithic Age. Sino-Uralic, Indo-European and some other languages had common grounds in Eurasia in the Paleolithic Age.
