Guide:Languages

Languages of Kuri
Most people, at a minimum, speak common. That's the language in which 99% of day-to-day conversation occurs, although the varying personalities and figures of Karchan bring many dialects to that Common Tongue. Humans of Karchan rarely learn another language, as races with their own rarely speak it in the presence of man. Usage of J. R. R. Tolkien's languages are highly encouraged!

Other Known Karchanian Languages
 * Black Speech - Also called 'Dark Speech', spoken by followers of The Thauranko
 * Draconic - Lots of sibilant 's'es.
 * Drowic - bastardized elvish
 * Dwarven - Known to them as 'Khuzdul '
 * Elvish - Known to them as 'Sindarin'
 * Goblin - Gibberish and noises.
 * Gypsy/Malfarian - Known to players as 'French'.
 * Haavian - Known as archaic Haavian and is considered an old world tongue. This is a completely made up language that requires the use of a translator. For more information, contact Victoria.
