Armenian

Birgit Anette Olsen and Rasmus Thorsø · 2022

Catalogue summary

The chapter evaluates Armenian as an independent Indo-European branch, then uses shared phonological, morphological, and lexical innovations with Greek, Phrygian, and Albanian to argue for a Balkan Indo-European subgroup.

Why this matters

It gives readers a concise linguistic framework for understanding both Armenian's distinct development and its proposed higher-order relationships.
