The Indo-European language family - the most well-researched and the first family to be proven. Surely everything is already discovered about it, and there are no controversies or unknowns... right? Well, I'm here to challenge your views (and my own, to be honest) that everything is set in stone regarding the Indo-European language family. Going through the latest research in the field, I personally changed many of my own beliefs on the matter. So even if you think you know everything there is to know about the Indo-Europeans, I'd still ask you to check this video out. You too may discover something new.
