Living languages covered in The World's Major Languages (2018 edition). Hyphens mean they are covered together in the same chapter (well, with the standard disclaimer about a certain South Slavic language).

Latin has a chapter and so does Sanskrit, but they are not really alive.

Turkish is covered with the other Turkic languages (but they are a dialect continuum anyway), but singled out in the title. Similarly Hausa, Tamil, and Swahili are covered with their families.
