Baltic-Finnic languages, also known as Finnic languages, are a subgroup of the
Finno-Ugric languages, and are spoken around the
Baltic Sea by about 7 million people.It should be noted that despite the name, Baltic-Finnic languages are not genetically related to the
Baltic languages (ie.
Latvian and
Lithuanian which are
Indo-European tongues rather than Finno-Ugric), instead both language groups are spoken in geographic proximity to the Baltic Sea.
Finnish and
Estonian are the official languages of their respective nation states. The other Finnic languages are
Ingrian,
Karelian,
Ludic,
Veps,
Votic,
South Estonian (including
Võro) and
Livonian.
