Answer:

The statement about family of English ad Punjabi language is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The languages which are used for communication are classified under the following families namely:

  • Indo-European
  • Indo-Aryan
  • Dravidian
  • Mon-Khmer
  • Sino-Tibetan

In etymological terms, Punjabi language is delegated an individual from the Indo-Aryan subgroup of the ancient Proto-Indo-European group of language and the English language is placed under the family of Indo-European which has more number of speakers.

Due to this difference, it is considered that English and Punjabi belong to different language families.
