• It is hypothesized that every language in the European and Indian area were once one language, but different dialects and pronunciations evolved the languages into what they are today.
• These languages with similar pronunciations and sounds are dubbed the Indo-European family.
• Pronunciation of words changes over time, just like the way words are added or removed.
• Old Sanskrit is the oldest language that bears similarities to English and other Indo-European languages.
• The Indo-European has multiple branches: Indian, Iranian, Armenian, Hellenic, Albanian, and Italic. Each of these branches helped form the modern languages used to this day.
