"Grammar of the Gothic Language" is a book by Joseph Wright describing the extinct Gothic language, first published in 1910. It includes the language's development from Proto-Indo-European (then known as "Indo-Germanic") and Proto-Germanic ("Primitive Germanic"), and part of Ulfilas's bible translation. It superseded Wright's earlier "A Primer of the Gothic Language", and has been reprinted many times throughout the 20th century.
