*the balto-slavic languages are a branch of the ‘indo-european family’ of languages*
.
(it traditionally comprises the ‘baltic’ and ‘slavic’ languages)
.
Baltic and Slavic languages share several linguistic traits not found in any other Indo-European branch, which points to a period of common development. It is now a general consensus among linguists to classify Baltic and Slavic languages into a single branch, even though some details of the nature of their relationship remain in dispute[2] in some circles, usually due to political controversies.[3] Some linguists (Kortlandt, Derksen) however, have suggested that Balto-Slavic should be split into three equidistant groups: Eastern Baltic, Western Baltic (which is extinct) and Slavic.[4][5]
.
A Proto-Balto-Slavic language is reconstructable by the comparative method, descending from Proto-Indo-European by means of well-defined sound laws, and out of which modern Slavic and Baltic languages descended.
.
(one particularly innovative dialect separated from the “balto-slavic dialect continuum” and became ancestral to the “Proto-Slavic language” from which all ‘slavic languages’ descended)
