Which European language has the most similarity to a Pre Indo-European language ?

[justme]

Proto Indo European Lithuanian
Pre-Indo European possibly Albanian or Greek...

[Comte Arnau]

Latin and Greek to my ears.

[Rudel]

This might help, just take a closer look at first tree branch.

Notice how Albanian language together with Armenian language (geographically not in Europe) remained unevolved thus most pre-IndoEuropean compared to other nations.

They didn't remain « unevolved », they just didn't gain prominence enough to fork.

[tngz]

Linguists say; Lithuanian.

pre-indo european, as in before the arrival of indo-european languages? wouldnt basque be the only one? i guess maybe finno-ugric too in scandinavia

if you mean most indo-euopean like, it would have to be lithuanian

Lithuanians have the most pure & archaic Indo-European language.

Lithuanians also have the most pure & archaic DNA in Europe being the most Northern European by DNA & also the most Eastern European by DNA.

Armenian, Albanian, Greek too.. although it's modernised more now.
