Important Notes:
* This list is not exhaustive. Many other Indo-European languages exist, including those spoken by smaller communities or with fewer speakers.
* The distinction between "Europe" and "Asia" can be blurry, especially in the Caucasus region.
* Some languages, like Romani (spoken by the Roma people), have spread widely throughout Europe and even to other continents.
It is also important to note that language families are complex and constantly evolving. While the Indo-European family is generally considered to be a coherent group, there are ongoing debates and uncertainties about the relationships between individual languages and branches within the family.
