==Trader’s Tongue==
''The Gnomish tongue shares a common root with Old Dwarven, but then Gnomish also shares vocabulary, slang, and idioms with almost every other language as well. Gnome culture is characterized by its adaptability, which seems to be reflected in its language. Ahistory of widespread trading concerns has not only made gnomes Eredane’s finest practical linguists, it has also transformed their own language into a universal pidgin that most simply call Trader’s Tongue. If there is a common language in Eredane, it is Gnomish. Because most races recognize many of their own words and linguistic elements in Trader’s Tongue, they find it unusually easy to learn. Characters with at least basic competence in Colonial, Erenlander, Halfling, High Elven, Norther, or Old Dwarven are considered to have a pidgin competence level in Trader’s Tongue.''
