<h3>3480 L &#8212; Languages</h3>

The ordinary political maps are colored according to the language of the dominant people of each state.  This gives a rough indication of the spread of language families, but it is of course misleading for multi-ethnic states.  

<p>This map is offered as a corrective; it shows the extent of the Erel&aacute;ean language families irrespective of national boundaries.  Families are labelled in black, major languages in brown.

<p>A map of this scale cannot show regions of multilingualism; some of the more notable examples are described below.

<ul>
<li>The boundary between Xurnese and the nomadic peoples is by no means as neat as shown on the map.  The Xurnese are concentrated along the rivers (including, of course, minor ones that don&#8217;t appear on the map); the nomads wander quite a ways inside Xurno in search of pasturage.  <br>&nbsp;

<li>In Dhekhnam, Demoshi-speaking administrators and outposts of Carhinnian cavalry are scattered throughout the empire.  The empire has also been moving Demoshi and Tyellakhi colonists into Sarn&aacute;e&#8212; supplementing a minority of Eynleyni speakers which remained from Munkh&acirc;shi days.<br>&nbsp;

<li>The major trade languages (Verdurian, Kebreni, Xurnese, Gurdagor, U&#x1e6d;andal) are spoken well beyond the borders of their homelands.  <br>&nbsp;

<li>For religious reasons, Old T&#x017e;uro is widely studied in the Jippirasti realm, and serves as well as a lingua franca.

</ul>
