Italic for me. Most of the languages I like are here. There are roughly 2000 years of culture recorded in the
languages of this family and the diversity of the group is neat from a linguistic point of view. Some damn useful
languages by any standard as well. I thought I was done with Spanish, but I just can't put an Italic language down
for good once I've started with it.
I'm interested in Germanic too, but primarily for German and the history of English. I just don't like it quite as
much as Italic, and I find the study of the Germanic languages easier to drop. Maybe it's because we know less
about the early history of this branch compared to Italic, or maybe it's because I'm more interested in travel to
Romance-speaking countries.
Hellenic is the only other branch of IE that I've "seriously dabbled" in. I like it, but less than Italic.

Germanic and Romance languages. The reason why is because I'm just too lazy to learn something completely
different from the languages I already know.
