Indo-European

Japanese: インド・ヨーロッパ語族 - インドヨーロッパごぞく(英語表記)Indo‐European
Indo-European
They are also called the Indo-European family (we will use this name for convenience from here on). In the past, the name Aryan was also used, but this was a general term for the Indo-Iranian languages ​​and is inappropriate for the Indo-European family. The name Indo-Germanic comes from Indo-Germanisch, which is still commonly used in German today. This name was created based on the idea that the eastern Indic language family and the western Germanic language family are representative of this large language family, but it is not used in any language other than German.

Japanese:
印欧語族ともいう(以下便宜上この名称を用いる)。古くはアーリヤ語族Aryanという名称も用いられたが,これはインド・イラン語派の総称で,印欧語族については不適当である。インド・ゲルマン語族の名は,ドイツ語で今日もなお慣用となっているIndo‐Germanischに由来する。この名称は,東のインド語派と西のゲルマン語派をこの大語族の代表とみる考え方に基づいてつくられたものであるが,ドイツ語以外では使用されない。
