What is the parent of most of the languages in Europe today?

The majority of European languages are derived from the extinct language of Proto-Slavic. The languages that derive from this parent language are known as the Slavic languages, and are found in Eastern Europe. This includes the national languages of: Albanian Belarusian Bosnian Bulgarian Croatian Czech Macedonian Montenegrin Polish Russian Serbian Slovak Slovenian Ukrainian The Baltic languages (Latvian and Lithuanian) are sometimes included in the Slavic family by enlarging the title to Balto-Slavic languages. Their shared history is disputed, which is why they are sometimes left out of the Slavic group. In Western Europe, there are two main language groups: the Romance Languages and the Germanic languages. Romance languages are derived from the extinct language of Latin, which was the language of the Roman Empire. All these languages can be found in the southern portion of Western Europe. The national languages of this language family include: Catalan French Italian Portuguese Romanian (only Romance language found in Eastern Europe) Romansh Spanish Germanic languages are derived from the extinct language of Proto-Germanic, and can be found in the northern portion of Western Europe. The national languages of this language family include: Danish Dutch English* German Icelandic Luxembourgish Norwegian Swedish * - English is a recognized Germanic language, but many confuse it for a Romance language itself. This is because English is derived from the island of Great Britain. This island was first conquered by the Normans, and later by the French. The Normans brought about their Germanic languages while the French brought the French language (Romance). These languages have both influenced the English language greatly, although obviously the Germanic languages more so.
