No comparative method for Proto-Basque[edit]
Proto-Basque words were reconstructed mostly by internal reconstruction rather than by the comparative method, as there is no well attested relative language to Basque. The comparative method is only applicable where there are at least two languages to compare with each other. That's is not the case with Basque, as its only relative, Aquitanian in limitedly registered. I would change the text of this article to reflect that the reconstruction was by means of internal reconstruction instead of comparative method, but I don't know to do so.
