Érase un inglés, un francés, un español, un rumano, un eslavo, un lituano, un persa, un indio, un nepalí, un griego ...etc que hablaban la misma lengua ...¿es esto posible? Por supuesto... Desde las islas británicas hasta el himalaya pasando por la estepa rusa y bajando hasta persia y la India. Constituye más o menos un 50% de la población global del mundo... unos 3.000 millones de personas. Seguido por la familia sinotibetana constituye la familia lingüística más hablada en la actualidad y que más ramas o subdivisiones posee.
Por tanto en este blog se intentará reconstruir esta protolengua. Ésta es la extensión aproximada de las lenguas indoeuropeas en la actualidad: Están en color naranja claro los países en los que una lengua indoeuropea no es conocida ampliamente por la población pero que es cooficial :ej: el inglés en Filipinas, el danés en Groenlandia, el portugués en Mozambique , el francés en Mauritania , el sueco en Finlandia o el español en el Sáhara occidental.
There was a time when an English,a Spaniard, a Latvian, a Persian, an Indian and a Greek.. etc were all speaking the same language, the protoindoeuropean language... Is that possible??? Of course... From the British Isles to the Himalaya going through the russian steppes and going down to Persia and India. All these languages englobe almost the 50% of the population... about 3.000 million of indoeuropean speakers. It is only followed by the sino-tibetan language family. And the indoeuropean languages also represent the most spoken family language worldwide, and it is the one that has more branches or subdivisions.
In this blog, I will try to reconstruct this protolanguage. The following map shows more or less the extension of the indoeuropean languages nowadays. Light green: countries where a language is not known by the majority of the population, but it is either cooficial or even official in a country. This occurs with the English language in the Phlippines, the French language in Mauritania or even Spanish in Western Sahara.
