Forum linguistic demographics.

Hehe, the influx of a pantheon of diverse new members has got me wondering about the ratio of languages.
Vote on the language family to which your mother tongue belongs to. If you are unsure, just tell me what your language is and I will classify it for you.

Yeah, it will be terribly unsurprising if the Germanic branch of the Indo-European languages prevail on top.
If you speak English or any other language similar to German like Frisian, Swedish, Dutch, Switzerdeutsch, etc., your mother tongue is Germanic.

Ask me if you're confused about your language's linguistic whereabouts and I will help you determine your vote as I have earlier mentioned.

If your language falls in "other", "unclassified" or "language isolate", please mention it in a post.
