Latvian (latviešu valoda) is, with Lithuanian, one of the two surviving Baltic languages of the Indo-European family. About 1.5 million people speak it, almost all in Latvia. Baltic languages are not Slavic, although geography sometimes leads to confusion. Latvian preserves several archaic Indo-European features (such as a pitch accent in standard speech) but is grammatically more modernised than Lithuanian.
Latvian has seven noun cases (nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, instrumental, locative, vocative), two grammatical genders, six declension classes, and verbs marked for tense, mood and aspect. Stress almost always falls on the first syllable. The Latin alphabet has 33 letters with macrons over long vowels and cedilla-like diacritics on palatalised consonants. LingoBear lets you see these in real text.
