Semigallian is an extinct language of the Baltic language sub-family of the Indo-European languages.
It was spoken in the northern part of Lithuania and southern regions of Latvia. It is thought that it was extinct by the 16th century with the assimilation by the Latvians. Semigallian is known only from references to it in documents and texts from before the 16th century.
