Karaalani language is a Slavic language out of Kento-Polyash language group, which is a (co-)official language of the Karaalan region of Monte Blanco, Mustelaria.

Introduction

The Language has 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 Kentalis.

Writing System

Karaalani has two official scripts (Both Alphabets), an adapted version of the Protopolyash script used in the Belgorian language, and the prefered Karaalani variant of the 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.
