Struman (endonym: strumen [ˈstɾumen] or gralë strumenë [ˈgɾalə ˈstɾumenᵊ], literally "struman voice") is an Indo-European language spoken by the Strumans in northern central Argis and by the Struman diaspora, which is generally concentrated in the rest of Argis and in Europa. With about 8 million speakers, it comprises an independent branch within the Indo-European languages and is not closely related to any other Indo-European language, but scholars suspect it might be a close relative to the Balto-Slavic languages due to similar grammar and some vocabulary.
