Languages that are typically distinct find a common link in summer. While Romance and Baltic languages often differ, they share the P.I.E *wósr̥, "spring" and originally "becoming warmer." Portuguese "verão" and Latvian "vasara". Similarly, the German "Sommer" and Kurdish "havîn," despite their different appearances, both stem from the P.I.E root *semh₂-, "summer or half of the year."

Włochy in Polish and Olaszország in Hungarian are the names of Italy. Both names come from Latin Volcae, a Celtic tribal confederation.
However in the majority of the languages, the name comes from Oscan 𐌅𐌝𐌕𐌄𐌋𐌉𐌞 (víteliú), the land of young bulls. Oscan was an Italic language, similar to Latin, which was spoken in Southern Italy until CE 100.
