	Curonian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Traditionally Curonian refers to an extinct language that was spoken by Curonians mainly in Courland peninsula, Western Latvia, and along the nearby Baltic shores.
		The language disappeared by the 17th century, leaving substrata in Western dialects of Latvian and Lithuanian languages.
		Their language was heavily influenced by Lithuanian and German respectively, and by the end of 18th century new Curonian dialects had formed, with the dialect of the Curonian Spit being notably distinct, due to its isolation from the mainland.

		While some linguists believe that the Baltic languages diverged from Proto-Indo-European separately from other language groups, others feel that the Baltic languages share a common ancestor tongue with either the Slavic languages or the Germanic languages, and should be classified as Balto-Slavic or Balto-Germanic respectively.
