The Latvian language is spoken by 1.5 million people primarily by the Latvian population in Latvia, where it is the official language, and secondarily by the non-Latvian population in the same country. Latvian is one of two extant Baltic languages, a group of its own within the family of Indo-European languages. It formed until 16th century on the basis of Latgalian accumulating Curonian, Semigallian and Selic languages (all are Baltic languages). Both Latvian and Lithuanian languages are considered to be the most archaic of still-spoken Indo-European languages. The closest ties they have are to Slavic and Germanic families.
Latvian is an inflective language with several analytical forms, three dialects, and German syntactical influence. There are two grammatical genders in Latvian. Each noun is declined in seven cases: nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, instrumental, locative, and vocative.
The oldest known examples of written Latvian are from a 1585 catechism.
