Latvian belongs to the Baltic branch of the Indo-European language family and is related to Lithuanian.  It was written in the Gothic script until the early 20th century when Roman script was adopted.  While ethnic Latvians obviously speak their mother tongue, only a quarter of the ethnic Russian minority are fluent in Latvian.
