Indo-European Language Family - Romance Branch
Like English, these languages have spread by Colonialism (mostly in Latin America).
1. Spanish (425 mil.) 3. French (129)
2. Portuguese (194) 4. Italian (62) - most in Brazil 5. Romanian (26)

Indo-European Family - Romance BranchThe Roman Empire, at its height in 2nd century A.D., extinguished many local languages. After the fall of Rome in the 5th century, communication declined and languages evolved again.
Literature was all written in Latin until the 13th and 14th centuries.
Vulgar Latin: (non-standard / slang version of Latin) spread by Roman soldiers and spoken in many Roman provinces.

CREOLE - a language that results from
the mixing of a colonizer’s language with an indigenous language and becomes the mother tongue of people.

1. It can not be proven that there was a single ancestor to the Indo-European language family but there is evidence that a Proto-Indo-European language did exist.
2. Evidence is found in similar words in different languages such as oak, bear, deer, and pheasant and other words that could have been a part of daily life.
3. Indo-European languages share similar words for winter and snow, but not for ocean. Linguists believe that the Proto-Indo-European language came from a cold climate that did not have contact with the ocean.

Origin and Diffusion of Indo-European Language Theories
Because language groups were isolated, distinct languages developed.
