Eastern European languages primarily belong to the Slavic, Baltic, and Uralic language families. Major Slavic languages include Russian, Polish, Czech, and Ukrainian, while Lithuanian and Latvian represent the Baltic group. The Uralic family includes languages like Hungarian and Finnish, which are distinct from the Slavic and Baltic languages. These languages are spoken in countries such as Poland, Ukraine, Hungary, and the Baltic States. They exhibit a rich diversity in grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. Many Eastern European languages use the Cyrillic or Latin alphabets, reflecting historical influences and cultural exchanges in the region.
