Greater Magaric languages
The Greater Magaric languages are a branch of Sino-Tibetan languages proposed by Nicolas Schorer. Schorer considers Greater Magaric to be closely related to the Kiranti languages as part of a greater Himalayish branch, and does not consider Himalayish to be particularly closely related to the Tibetic languages, which include Tibetan and the Tamangic languages.
Matisoff, in the final print release of the Sino-Tibetan Etymological Dictionary and Thesaurus, has also proposed a Kham-Magar-Chepang language group.Classification
