Index of language articles
This is a partial index of Wikipedia articles treating natural languages, arranged alphabetically and with (sub-) families mentioned. The list also includes extinct languages.
For a published list of languages, see ISO 639-1 (list of ISO 639-1 codes for 136 major languages), or for a more inclusive list, see ISO 639-3 (list of ISO 639-3 codes, 7,874 in total as of June 2013). The enumeration of languages and dialects can easily be taken into the five-digit range; the Linguasphere Observatory has a database (LS-2010) with more than 32,800 coded entries and more than 70,900 linguistic names.

gollark: I am *not*, since going around punishing for speech (except in rare cases of direct harm) is a very problematic and slippery slope.
gollark: If you give governments or whoever the power to go around getting rid of speech *you* don't like, they can happily proceed to do it to speech you like too.
