Daco-Thracian is a hypothesis that the Dacian language and the Thracian language were close languages on the same Indo-European branch or possibly even dialects of the same language.

However, in the 1950s, the Bulgarian linguist Vladimir Georgiev published his work[1] which argued that Dacian and Albanian should be assigned to a language branch termed Daco-Moesian (or Daco-Mysian), Moesian (or Mysian) being thought of as a transitional language between Dacian and Thracian.

Georgiev argued that Dacian and Thracian are different languages, with different phonetic systems, his idea being supported by the placenames, which end in -dava in Dacian and Moesian, as opposed to -para, in Thracian placenames.[1]
