Kowy (າດຸຂຖຍໂາະຍສຳຂຖ) is a common language spoken in the Avadian Peninsula. Originating from migrating tribes, it was formed out of major changes from original Astariax and Olivichian languages as tribes migrated east, and settled in the modern day Trident Union. Named after the tribes that migrated, the language is characterized by the use of a variety of consenants, many consecutive causing the language to be quite difficult to be spoken. The written language is also difficult to read, write, and use, due to the fact it uses a large amount of letters for words (an average of twelve letters for common words), the written language is rarely used. However, it can be found on some signs in the Ardo Lushland of the Trident Union, and other areas in Joomin. The Common transliteration is far more common, and is regulary spoken, written, and used across the Union.

Early words of Kowy were first recorded written on caves in Southern Astariax, most likely nomadic tribes who had not settled in the region. These were essentially mixes of regional languages and Kowy, though over time, the tribes began developing the language they used as other tribes were few the further east they went. When they reached the Avadian Peninsula along with Normerra, the first records of language was Kowy. Most tribes spoke the language, and over time it became more unique and seperate from other languages, causing the modern Kowy to be created. As multiple nations and eventually the Great Republic were formed, Kowy was the most common language, being spoken regulary and used for almost all affairs. This was due to the lack of any foreign influence in the region, until the later years of the Great Republic and early Trident Union, when foreign trade began promoted. This began the rapid decline of the language, mostly due to it's difficulty, and that foreign investors could not speak Kowy fluently. Kowy was still adopted as the Union's official secondary language, after Common, meaning most things in the Union have a Common transliteration of the language below Common text.
