Indo-European is the most widely spoken family of languages and dialects in the world. Approximately 3 billion people speak Indo-European languages today. The Indo-European languages are divided into eastern (“satem”) and western (“cetum” or “kentum”) languages. It depends on how the first consonant of the word for “hundred” was pronounced in the earliest version of the language. The satem and cetum branches themselves are also divided into language subfamilies, which may be further divided. Indo-European languages contain the following 8 subfamilies: Albanian, Armenian, Baltic-Slavic, Celtic, Germanic, Greek, Indo-Iranian, Italic, and two extinct subfamilies – Anatolian and Tocharian.

The Albanian Subfamily
In the 20th century Albanian (called Shqip by its speakers) was found to be a part of Indo-European family of languages. It has been written in the Latin script since 1909, replacing a number of writing systems including Greek and Arabic scripts.
Albanian is a language spoken by 6 million of people who speak it mostly in the Balkans.

The Armenian Subfamily
Armenian has borrowed lots of words from Greek and Farsi (Iranian) that is why, at the beginning, it was thought that Armenian had belonged to the Iranian branch. Armenian has its own script, and is spoken by 6 million people in Armenia, Nagorno-Karabakh (an enclave in Azerbaijan) and Georgia.

The Baltic-Slavic Subfamily
Lithuanian and Latvian are spoken in east and southeast of the Baltic Sea by 7 million people.
The Baltic subfamily consists of two groups: Western Baltic (extinct languages: Prussian, Curonian, Galindian, Sudovian (Yotvingian)) and Eastern Baltic (two extinct: Selonian, Semigallian; and two living languages: Lithuanian (including Standard Lithuanian and Samogitian (spoken in west part of the country)), Latvian (including Latvian and Latgalian).Lithuanian is one of the oldest of the Indo-European languages, while Prussian was the most archaic one.

The Slavic languages are a group of closely related languages of the Slavic people: East Slavic: Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Rusyn (spoken in parts of Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Romania); West Slavic: Czech and Slovak, Upper and Lower Sorbian (spoken in parts of eastern Germany), Lechitic languages: Polish, Pomeranian/Kashubian (spoken in parts of Poland) and extinct Polabian; South Slavic: Western sub-group: Slovenian, Serbo-Croatian (Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian), Croatian-chakavian, Croatian-kajkavian; Eastern sub-group: Bulgarian, Macedonian, Old Church Slavonic.

The Celtic Subfamily
This subfamily is the smallest one.
It is spoken by 2 millions of people in a few areas in the Great Britain, Isle of Man, Ireland, British Isles, eastern Canada and Brittany.
Celtic languages are divided into four sub-groups: Continental Celtic: Gaulish and its close relatives: Lepontic, Noric and Galatian; Celtiberian; Insular

The Germanic Subfamily
The languages originated from Old Norse and Saxon.
It is usually divided into following sub-groups: East Germanic (Gothic), North Germanic (Scandinavian languages), and West Germanic (all the rest).
They include English, the second most spoken language in the world, the most widespread. It also includes Dutch (Flemish and Afrikaans – varieties of Dutch), German (including Yiddish), Frisian, Icelandic is the least changed of the Germanic languages. Another old language is Faroese. Three of the four (mainland) Scandinavian languages belong to this branch: Danish, Norwegian, Swedish.
Gothic, Frankish, Lombardo, Visigoth and Vandal are extinct.

The Greek Subfamily
Greek is one of the oldest Indo-European languages spoken by 20 million of speakers in Greece and Cyprus.
The subfamily is divided into following periods: Mycenaean, the language of the Mycenaean civilization: Doric, Ionic, Aeolic, and Attic; Classical Greek (Ancient Greek); Hellenistic Greek (Koine Greek); Medieval Greek (Byzantine Greek); Modern Greek (Romeika): Katharevoussa and Demotic. Both last forms had naturally converged and Standard Modern Greek emerged.

The Indo-Iranian Subfamily
The Indo-Iranian languages form the largest subfamily with more than one billion of speakers in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, The Maldives, Iran, and Afghanistan.
The Indo-Iranian group consists of four language groups: the Indo-Aryan, Iranian, Nuristani, and Dardic. They form other subgroups (see Table 5).
Avestant, Scythian (including Saka), Sogdian, Bactrian, Old Persian, Middle Persian are extinct.

The Italic Subfamily
The Italic subfamily has two groups.
Dalmatian, Romance Pannonian language, African Romance, Anglo-Norman, Auregnais,

The Anatolian Subfamily
This oldest known subfamily includes the language of the Hittite (the richest and oldest), which was the official language of Hettite Empire, once ruled central Anatolia, fought with the Ancient Egyptians and was mentioned in the Christian Bible’s Old Testament. Other languages were Lydian (spoken in Lydia, the south coast of Anatolia), Lycian (spoken by a Hellenic culture along the western coastal regions in the Iron Age), Luwian (a close relative of Hittite, spoken in ancient Troy), Palaic (spoken in north-central Anatolia), Carian (spoken in Caria), Pisidian and Sidetic, Milyan.
All languages are extinct.

manab:
Sanskrit is the oldest language. It is the language of the bhagawana. It is perfect language. Its a structured language. It never belonged to any so called language family. It is the perfect one. No need to be refined. Rather it has lent many many words to other major languages of the world. It never have to borrow any word from any language. 

Have respect to it and be grateful to it. Recognize its rightful position.
