This map image was uploaded in a raster image format such as PNG, GIF, or JPEG. However, it contains information that could be stored more efficiently and/or accurately in the SVG format, as a vector graphic.
If possible, please upload an SVG version of this image. After doing so, please replace all instances of the previous version throughout Wikipedia (noted under the “File links” header), tag the old version with {{Vector version available|NewImage.svg}}, and remove this tag. For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload. For assistance with converting to SVG, please see the Graphics Lab.

The colours in this image should be changed so as to be more different and therefore more easily recognisable and not as confusing.

This map image should be recreated using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is already available, please upload it. After uploading an SVG, replace this template with template {{Vector version available|new image name.svg}} in this image.

[edit] Info

This file is from the English Wikipedia. It represents the largest uncontroversial linguistic macrofamilies using the color scheme from en:Wikipedia:WikiProject Languages. (Thus, Japanese and Korean are represented as language isolates, despite various contested theories linking them to other families or each other.)

Due to the lack of sourcing and the inherent imprecision of the Robinson projection, this should be taken as a somewhat impressionistic representation.

The legend's font is Arial 11.
