原始印歐語小品詞(particle：質點、粒子)已經被現代語言學家重構了，基於了跨越所有印歐語系語言所找到的相似性。本文列出並討論它們的假定形式。
副詞
很多小品詞可以用作副詞和後置詞二者。這類似於現代語言；比較一下英語的「He is above in the attic」(副詞)和「The bird is above the house」(前置詞)。除了安納托利亞語族、印度-伊朗語族和薩比尼語，和退化於拉丁語和古希臘語中之外，在後代語言中後置詞變成了前置詞。[1]

未翻譯的反映和 PIE 詞有相同的意義。
在下列語言中，兩個反映用斜槓分開意味著:
可以重構兩個否定詞 *ne 和 *mē，後者只用於否定性命令。所謂的否定前綴(pivative prefix) *n̥- 可能是 *ne 的零等級。
| 小品詞 | 意義 | 反映 |
|---|---|---|
| *ne | 句子否定詞 | Ved. ná, Lat. nē/ne-, Eng. ne/no, Gm. ne/nein, Lith. nè, OCS ne,[4] Hitt. natta, Luw. ni-, Lyc. ni-, Lyd. ni-, Av. na, Pers. na/?, Gk. ne-, Osc. ne, Umb. an-, ON né, Goth. ni, Ir. ní/ní, Welsh ni, Arm. an-, Toch. an-/en-, Ltv. ne, OPruss. ne, Pol. nie, Russ. ne, net, Alb. nuk |

| *mē | 命令否定詞 | Ved. mā, Gk. mē[4] Alb. mos |
從形容詞派生出的副詞(比如英語的 bold-ly, beautiful-ly)可論證的不能歸類為小品詞。在原始印歐語中，它們簡單的是形容詞的格形式因此更好分類為名詞。例如 *meǵh₂「greatly」，是主格-賓格單數。[5]
連詞
重構了下列連詞:[6]
†放置在被連接的詞的後面，如拉丁語 Senatus populus-que Romanus ("Senate and people of Rome"), -que 連接起 senatus 和 populus。
感嘆詞
