Slavic languages

The Slavic languages are a group of languages belonging to the Indo-European family.

The Slavic languages are divided into the subgroups South Slavic (e.g., Bulgarian, Croatian, Slovenian, Bosnian and Serbian), West Slavic (e.g., Czech, Polish and Slovak) and East Slavic (Ukrainian, Belorusian and Russian). The languages are relatively closely related to the Baltic languages and are spoken mainly in Eastern Europe and Russia. Many Slavic languages are written in the Cyrillic alphabet, but some are written in the Latin alphabet. Some languages, such as Serbian, can be written in both alphabets.

Note! Serbo-Croatian, Yugoslavian and Czechoslovakian are outdated political collective terms for some of the languages in this group.
