The languages of Gasaria refer to the languages and veneculars used in Gasaria. The national and official language of Gasaria is Gasarian. Common, Gaso-Common, and Tasian are recognized languages and are commonly heard in multicultural areas of the country, such as Sashaslav.
Gasarian is the predominant language and is the legislative, judicial, and administrative language of the state. Outside of Sashaslav and Olograd, it is the overwhelming predominant language of business and day-to-day life. Within Gasaria's metropolises, Gasarian remains widely used, especially among ethnic Gasarians.
Common is a recognized language and de facto lingua franca among non-Gasarians in Gasaria. It is also the most widely known second language among ethnic Gasarians. Common is commonly spoken in Sashaslav and Olograd, where it is the language of day-to-day communication and business for many communities. Gaso-Common is a spoken and written vernacular of Common that incorporates Gasarian words and syntax, sometimes written in the Eastern script. Road signage across Gasaria is billingual featuring Gasarian and Common. Private signage in Sashaslav and Olograd is often both in Gasarian and Common/Gaso-Common.
Tasian is the ethnic language of Tasians, the largest minority ethnic group in Gasaria. Tasian is also widely spoken as a second language.
The Statute of State Multiculturalism enshrines multiculturalism and multilingualism as integral to the "All-Gasarian Nation". Gasarian nationalists desire to promote the Gasarian language in contrast to other languages.
