In the AWAD mail today, there is a fascinating graphic of the tree diagram of all languages of the world emerging from Indo-European. Unfortunately I do not know how to load an image - been here so long, but never found the need. It is just beautiful!

I was wondering where the Pacific Languages stemmed from, but now I see its just Indo/European

a tree diagram of all languages of the world emerging from Indo-European
Just the Indo-European languages, so the diagram excludes most of the 4,000 to 5,000 languages in the world.
Ceci n'est pas un seing.

Just the Indo-European languages, so the diagram excludes most of the 4-5K languages in the world. Help, please! The term 4-5K languages? Japanese etc.?

Thanks, I thought that after I posted it. At first I thought it might refer to something specific like the Y2K scare, back in 1999.

I've changed it in the post to be expanded.

Thanks, but I was probably the only one who did not understand. Looks good now, though.
