===Various Human Languages=== While most of the traditional languages of D&D and Pathfinder can be found in Polesia, there is no true "Common Language" for humanity. Lataneran is the closest one to this concept but even it is not the universal default. The following are the most common languages found in Antanides and some of the other continents. '''Askald''': The dominant language spoken by the dragonborn of Skaalvatar, and the men of Askaldheim, Averheim, Ulmar, and Vardaland in the North-western part of the Freedlands. '''Avaladh''': The language of the extinct island empire of GhΕl. Also, a dialect of its written form was used in Shahar-khet as an alphabet for the elites, and a fairly true to form dialect is still spoken by the Belteshazzar. This language is restricted and cannot be spoken as native language without GM permission. '''Avandori''': A bastardization of Lataneran mixed with Thesian and Ibori spoken commonly in the Holy Erabissian Empire. '''Benoan''': A derivative of Lataneran spoken by the natives of Benoa. '''Eshtoran''': Spoken by the people of Eshtorah and a common language for arcane spells to be transcribed and recited in. Also spoken as a secondary language in Marabi. '''Khetish''': The language of the Ancient Shahar-khet Empire and also the chief language of Shulashomu (as a dialect of course). It is a very popular language for some of the older arcane and divine spells. '''Lataneran''': Spoken by the True Empire of Latanera, also one of the commonly accepted languages of scholars and Trade, and additionally a very common language for many divine spells cast by clerics, oracles, warpriests, and paladins. '''Ibori''': The main dialect spoken by the tribes in Iboria. '''Kaoi''': An almost obsolete language spoken by the last holdouts of the Kaoi Confederacy, mostly replaced now with a bastardization of Okubo. '''Marabish''': The language spoken by the plains and desert dwellers of Marabi. '''Okubo''': The official language of the Okubo Empire in Asashiro. '''Sengalach''': Spoken by the people of Dal Armita, Dal Eran, the Bannoch Highlands, and Clalder Blaugh in the Freedlands. '''Tenngi''': The common language of the steppe peoples of northeastern Asashiro, including the Kogrun Khanate. '''Thesian''': Aside from Lataneran Thesian is one of the most common trade and scolar languages in Antanides, and also one that many arcane spells are written in. '''Tradespeak''': A pidgin language formed from Marabish, Thesian, and several languages from the Freedlands. Its a very common language throughout the City States, though it is only used for business. '''Tugali''': The main language used in Dhumarja, Saamavi, and Kasmira. Also spoken in northern Zumwalla in areas near the Sengari Straits, and Bhetene. '''Viedoan''': A Lataneran derivative spoken primarily in the Viedoan Empire and throughout the Gellian Isles. '''Zhongese''': The language of both the North and South Kingdoms of Zhongguo. It is also spoken as a secondary language in the Okubo Empire.
