The North Imbrodesian languages constitute the largest branch of the Imbrodesian family of languages, accompanied by the West and South Imbrodesian languages. The North Imbrodesian branch is generally divided into two major classifications: North Coast Imbrodesian, which includes the Saxburgish dialect; and Imbro-Pelle, which includes the Modern Usteti dialect.
The Saxburgish and Modern Saxender dialects are close enough to each other to be mutually intelligable, with cross-communication being extremely common. Saxburgish is by far the most common dialect, with over 800 million speakers worldwide, followed by Modern Saxender and Usteti.
