Index of language articles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 2001:d08:1200:c28c:6083:ed7f:631d:39c2 (talk) at 12:29, 19 March 2025. The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a partial index of Wikipedia articles treating natural languages, arranged alphabetically and with (sub-) families mentioned. The list also includes extinct languages.

For a published list of languages, see ISO 639-1 (list of ISO 639 language codes for 136 major languages), or for a more inclusive list, see ISO 639-3 (list of ISO 639-3 codes, 7,874 in total as of June 2013). The enumeration of languages and dialects can easily be taken into the five-digit range; the Linguasphere Observatory has a database (LS-2010) with more than 32,800 coded entries and more than 70,900 linguistic names.
