How many dead languages are there?
Hard to know. Most languages are spoken and are never written. When languages like that disappear, they leave no trace. Another reason it is hard to know is that languages change all the time and it is tricky trying to figure out when they have changed into a new language. Usually we know when a written language becomes so different from its spoken counterpart that the language represented by the written language has died. Latin was still used as a written language long after people only spoke the languages it had morphed into--the Romance languages of French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and so on. A similar process happened when Old English morphed into Middle English: people were still writing Old English after it was really a dead language.
