Difference between revisions of "Iliatarian Languages"

A small family, and one not native to [[Elondor]], the Iliatarian languages were a project more of chance than of planning. They began with a single sentence of deliberate gibberish, conceived and constructively dissected above a hotel pool in New Orleans during an episode of acute linguistic craving. The family came about, as most, in reverse, as I began with the [[Sulutmuri dialect]] and worked my way backwards into prehistory, as well as was possible. The relatively small scale of this family is one the hand caused by its very limited geographic distribution, ranging only from the eponymous [[Iliatar]] in [[eastern Seligon]] across the [[Seligonian Highlands|Lerewe Highlands]] and into the [[Eskar|canyons of Eskar]]; and on the other by the fact that few of its languages were ever written, and historical stages of any of its branches are near-impossible to grasp.
