Proto-Indo-European language. Indo-European languages around 500 AD. The Proto-Indo-European language ( PIE) is the ancestor of the Indo-European languages. [1] It is the best-understood of all proto-languages. [2] It was put together by the methods of historical linguistics. [3]
The Proto-Indo-Europeans are a hypothetical prehistoric ethnolinguistic group of Eurasia who spoke Proto-Indo-European (PIE), the reconstructed common ancestor of the Indo-European language family . Knowledge of them comes chiefly from that linguistic reconstruction, along with material evidence from archaeology and archaeogenetics.
The Indo-European languages are the world's most spoken language family. [1] Linguists believe they all come from a single language, Proto-Indo-European , which was originally spoken somewhere in Eurasia .
Proto-Indo-European (PIE) is the reconstructed ancestor of the Indo-European languages. It is thought that PIE was spoken during the late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age - about 4500 - 2500 BC, possibly in Pontic-Caspian steppe north of the Black Sea. Another theory is that the PIE speakers originally came from Anatolia (modern Turkey).
The phonology of the Proto-Indo-European language (PIE) has been reconstructed by linguists, based on the similarities and differences among current and extinct Indo-European languages.
