Editing Fusional language (section)

==Gain of fusionality==
Some languages shift over time from agglutinative to fusional. 

For example, most [[Uralic languages]] are predominantly agglutinative, but [[Estonian language|Estonian]] is markedly evolving in the direction of a fusional language. On the other hand, [[Finnish language|Finnish]], its close relative, exhibits fewer fusional traits and thereby has stayed closer to the mainstream Uralic type. However, [[Sámi languages]], while also part of the Uralic family, have gained more fusionality than Finnish and Estonian since they involve [[consonant gradation]] but also vowel [[apophony]].
