'''Emnian''' (Emnian: ''Eaimhnidht'' [ˈavʲɾʲiːtʲ]) is a {{wpl|Semitic languages|West Emnitic language}} spoken by about 5.32 million people, principally in [[Emnia]], where it is an official language.
Until the 16th century, Emnian was a continuum of dialects spoken from the Lower Delta to the [[Far East (Emnian region)|Far East]] without a standard variety or spelling conventions. With the advent of [[Autocephalist Temple (Emnian lore)|Autocephalism]] and the introduction of the printing press, a standard language was developed based on the speech of the Lower Delta region. It spread through use in the education system, trade, and administration. During the romantic nationalist movements of the 19th century, the language itself was promoted as a token of Emnian national identity, and experienced a surge in use and popularity as major works of literature were produced. Today, the traditional dialects have almost disappeared except for the [[Thárann Valley dialect]].
==History==
Emnitic languages may have arrived in Emnia between 2,500 BC and 2,000 BC with the spread of the [[High Lake Culture]]. The language spoken by the High Lake Culture has been suggested as a candidate for the {{wpl|Proto-Semitic language|Proto-Emnitic}}, or, specifically, the direct ancestral language to Primitive Emnian.
===Primitive Emnian===
The earliest written form of the Emnian language is known to linguists as Primitive Emnian. Primitive Emnian is known only from fragments — mostly personal names — inscribed on stone in {{wpl|Phoenician alphabet|Emnian runes}}. These inscriptions are mostly found in the south of the country as well as in northern [[Southerland (Emnian lore)|Southerland]], where it was brought by settlers from Emnia.
===Old Emnian===
{{main|Old Emnian}}
Old Emnian first appears in the margins of {{wpl|Latin|Equatoric}} manuscripts as early as the 6th century. A large number of early Emnian literary texts, despite having been recorded as manuscripts during the Middle Emnian period (such as the ''[[Seaphair Mudoire]]''), are written in Old Emnian.
===Middle Emnian===
{{main|Middle Emnian}}
Middle Emnian refers most narrowly to the form of the language used from the 10th to the 12th centuries; it's therefore a contemporary of late {{wpl|Old English|Old Sudric}} and early {{wpl|Middle English|Middle Sudric}}. It is the language of a large amount of literature, including the entire ''[[Angaoide t-an Éile]]''.
