与母语假说相反，父语假说认为人类倾向于说他们父亲的语言，基于语言与父系（Y染色体）比母系（线粒体）更强的相关性。为了重新评估这两个相互竞争的假设，我们进行了一项遗传语言学研究的34个现代印欧（IE）人口。在这项研究中，在这些IE人群的父系和母系迁移的遗传历史进行了阐明，分别使用Y染色体和线粒体DNA单倍型组的系统发育网络。与以往的研究不同，我们分别基于词汇和音位系统对语言进行定量表征。我们发现，遗传距离和语言距离显着相关，彼此之间，这两者都与这些人群之间的地理距离。然而，当控制了地理因素，只有父亲和词汇特征的距离之间的相关性，和母亲和音素特征之间的相关性，仍然存在。这些不平衡的相关性调和了两个看似矛盾的假设。
In opposition to the mother tongue hypothesis, the father tongue hypothesis states that humans tend to speak their fathers’ language, based on a stronger correlation of languages to paternal lineages (Y-chromosome) than to maternal lineages (mitochondria). To reassess these two competing hypotheses, we conducted a genetic–linguistic study of 34 modern Indo-European (IE) populations. In this study, genetic histories of paternal and maternal migrations in these IE populations were elucidated using phylogenetic networks of Y-chromosomal and mitochondrial DNA haplogroups, respectively. Unlike previous studies, we quantitatively characterized the languages based on lexical and phonemic systems separately. We showed that genetic and linguistic distances are significantly correlated with each other and that both are correlated with geographical distances among these populations. However, when controlling for geographical factors, only the correlation between the distances of paternal and lexical characteristics, and between those of maternal and phonemic characteristics, remained. These unbalanced correlations reconciled the two seemingly conflicting hypotheses.
