    In this paper, the authors describe a constructive way for generating finite quasigroups of any given order that generalizes a previous method defined in [\textit{V. A. Nosov} and \textit{A. E. Pankratiev}, J. Math. Sci., New York 149, No. 3, 1230--1234 (2008; Zbl 1146.05011); translation from Fundam. Prikl. Mat. 12, No. 3, 65--71 (2006)]. Unlike that work, where they made use of proper families of functions over abelian groups, the new construction is based on proper families of functions over quasigroups and 3-quasigroups. In addition, unlike the previous proposal, the new one enables one to generate finite quasigroups containing no subquasigroups.
