Summary

This linguistic map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Human Language Families (wikicolors).svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.

Info

This file is from the English Wikipedia. It represents the largest uncontroversial linguistic macrofamilies using the color scheme from en:Wikipedia:WikiProject Languages. (Thus, Japanese and Korean are represented as language isolates, despite various contested theories linking them to other families (probably Altaic family) or each other.)

Due to the lack of sourcing and the inherent imprecision of the Robinson projection, this should be taken as a somewhat impressionistic representation.

The legend's font is Arial 11.

An error?

I can't see the Basque language in Northern Spain any more, so I reverted it to remove the foggyness/deletion of the Baques.--213.232.79.149 08:52, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

The Australian Indigenous languages covering the northern part of Australia somehow got lost between version 29th of May and 30th of May - can someone please put them back in or say why they have been removed? thanks 129.215.149.99 12:11, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
