Karaalani language is a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavic_languages Slavic language] out of [[Kento-Poylash languages|Kento-Polyash language group]], which is a (co-)official language of  the Karaalan region of [[Monte Blanco]], [[Mustelaria]].


=Introduction=
The '''Karaalani language''' is a [placeholder]-{{wp|Slavic language|Slavic}} {{wp|Pidgin}} language, which arose from [placeholder] merchants and traveler going into whats modern day [[Monte Blanco]], [[Mustelaria]], and settling in the area. The language is co-official in the Karaalani region of [[Monte Blanco]], [[Mustelaria]], and the 4th most spoken langauge in [[Mustelaria]].
The Language has [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavic_languages slavic root and grammar], and has 6 cases. Karaalani is slightly influenced by its bordering languages, like the Belgorian dialects, but it has managed to stay to its roots, quriosly it has words that sound very similar to words in the Kentalian langauge of {{flag|Kentalis}}.

Karaalani has two official scripts (Both Alphabets), an adapted version of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coptic_alphabet Protopolyash script] used in the Belgorian language, and the prefered Karaalani variant of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Cyrillic_alphabet Old Govoric alphabet] (commonly reffered to as the ''Iraklic script'' after the Karaalani who standerdised it), which drops certain nasal letters, but keeps others. Some people preffer to use a modified latin alphabet too, which has also been standerdised.
Karaalani officially uses the {{wp|Cyrillic script}} but it also has adapdet co-official {{wp|Coptic alphabet|Protopolyash}} and {{wp|Latin script|Latin}} forms.

===Gender===
Modern Karaalani has kept it's gender system partually, it appears in few places, like the stressed forms of the genitive pronouns, and in plurality.
 
===Number===
Number in Karaalani varies depending on the word, mainly due to their gender.

In old Karaalani there used to be a counting form of words' plurality, that appeared in most monosyllabic words, and has disapeared in modern Karaalani, but it was kept in the cloasy related languages like {{wp|Bulgarian langauge|Vranic}} and Zaltylani.
