The Mokhavic language is the most spoken language of the Mokhavic languages, and the official language of the nation of Qazhshava. It is an ancient Thuadian tounge with no known ancestral conection to the surrounding Thuado-Thrismaran languages.

Classification

As of yet, any attempts to link the Mokhavic languages to any other languages in the world have failed, altough some still believe its a very old relative to the Thuado-Thrismaran languages, which is only backed up by similar features which have been speculated and some proven to have come due to influence from said languages, and some reconstructed-proto words and existign root words that seem to have been borrowod from early forms of the slavic and germanic languages.

Dialects

The standart form of the Mokhavic language is based on the mezhian dialect, also known as the Southern Hill dialect.

Writing System

Mokhavic is written using the Govoric script, which was adopted around the 11th century, and used ever sence Govoric version:

А а Ӑ ӑ Б б В в Г г Д д Е е Ж ж З з
И и Й й К к Л л М м Н н О о П п Р р
С с Т т У у Ф ф Х х Ц ц Ч ч Ш ш Ы ы
Ь ь Ю ю Я я


However the government adapted a standartized Romanized form of the script in the late 20th century Romanized version:

А а Ӑ ӑ B b C c Č č D d E e F f G g
H h I i J j K k L l M m N n O o P p
Q q R r S s Š š T t U u V v W w X x
Y y Z z Ž ž
