There are several language families native to Great Kirav. At present, there is no ''demonstrable'' genetic relationship between the top-level families listed here, though ancestral connexions of great {{wp|time depth}} have been hypothesised. Occidental linguists generally presume, based on non-linguistic evidence of ancient migrations, that all of the indigenous languages of Great Kirav must ultimately descend from ''at most'' three proto-languages; two proto-languages are regarded as the most likely scenario, and a monogenetic hypothesis also has some support. In Coscivian academia, no such presumption is made. Some Coscivian linguists have classified Kiravian language families into three phyla - Atrassic, Macro-[[Koskenkorva|Koskenkorvan]], and Demomappic - mainly on non-linguistic grounds such as common origin myths, folk-religious rituals, and phrenological similarities of speech communities, but this classification scheme is not entertained in the Occident. | There are several language families native to Great Kirav.
