Tayamo (also known as Tayamese) ([ˈtʰajəmoʊ̯], Tayamo: T'ayasy itama Т'аясы итама [ˈt’ajas̻ɨ ˈitama], Itama t'ayamono Итама т'аямоно [ˈitama ˈt’ajamono]) is a pre-Thuado-Thrismaran language spoken in southern Thuadia. It is a recognized regional langauge in Hondonia and Kentalis as well as the Sekidean Union. The language is spoken by approximately 900 million people. It has 3 main dialect groups: Mainland, Eastern, and Western (also known as the Hrastmozh dialect).

Classification and status

With a lot of foreign influence during the last few centuries the language has taken in a lot of Thuado-Thrismaran and even some Aschari influence, due to which the modern grammar is very poluted compared to it's original form, of which there are very little texts, due to active periods of supressions from more powerfull nations, which makes the language hard to classify, some believe it to be a relative of the now extinct Hewehetan language in Hondonia. The status of the langauge is classiffied as Vigorous, the language is spoken by majority of the ethnic Tayamese population.

Orthography

Tayamo is written in the latin script in Hondonia and in the cyrillic script in Kentalis. The modern Tayamo latin alphabet was developed in 1978 during a language de-roumanization reform in 1970s, the old latin alphabet is still common to see in old signs, while the cyrillic alphabet was based on various alphabets from diferent langauge who use cyrillic.
