Gustaf John Ramstedt

Ramstedt, Gustaf John

Born Oct. 22, 1873, in Tam-misaari (Ekenäs); died Nov. 25, 1950, in Helsinki. Finnish linguist.

Ramstedt was a professor at the University of Helsinki from 1917 to 1941. He was one of the founders of the comparative-historical study of the Mongolian languages and a pioneer in comparative-historical Altaic studies. Beginning in 1898, he made a series of expeditions to the Volga region, Mongolia, the Kalmyk steppes, the Kuma region, and the Kushka region. He collected Mongolian, Kalmyk, and Mogul linguistic and folk-loric material, which he published with Turkic and, sometimes, Tunguso-Manchurian parallels. Ramstedt denied a Ural-Altaic genetic kinship, and included Korean and Japanese among the Altaic languages. A full summary of inter-Altaic sound and formal correspondences is provided in his Etymological Research on the Korean Language (vols. 1–2, 1949–53).
