Talk:List of Languages

What about Servitor languages? We know that Goblins (at least near Gildenhome) speak their own language, and Kobolds (again, near Gildenhome) have their bastard tongue. -Slitherrr

You'll have to discover those as we go. Orcs, Kobolds, and Goblins/Hobgoblins all have different languages, at the very least. -gm

Woo! Yeah, I feel like it's a good thing that Servitors are underrepresented in the wiki, almost like it's only the non-Servitor races writing it. I imagine it'd be fun to run a Servitor game and have them use a separate wiki that focuses completely on Servitor things. -Slitherrr

Ooo, I've always wanted to play a hobgobbo! --Msallen 16:37, 23 December 2009 (EST)

So, how used are the things in the Prime/Ulan branch? Are they limited mostly to that enormous Siberia-esque expanse, or do they get some actual use on the mainland? -Slitherrr

Virtually no use on the mainland. Refugees, exiles, and expats only. -gm

Fun fact: The Russian language's grammatical structure has barely changed in the last two thousand years. I'm picturing Odessan as being something like that, with the Ubrekti branch coming off (as you've mentioned) as more like the Latinate languages. The Ulan is probably exceedingly interesting; since it's still a largely isolated and wild area, there might even be languages that nobody in the Northern world has even heard.-Slitherrr

Wow, that's crazy. That sounds about right. Sad fact is, for people like the Celstians, Odessans, and Fresians, no one knows much about their origins thanks to the ruthlessness of the Ubrekti Empire's war and cultural obliteration. -gm

Oh? So Celesti is a monotype, and not part of the Ubrekti subfamily? -Slitherrr

Oh, sure it is. I expect most the Ubrekti languages are blends of Old Ubrekti and whatever language the barbarian peoples spoke before the Ubrekti came in. Some people, like the Odessans and Fresians, did not "Ubrektize" as much as others. -gm
