Tevrés (/tevˈɾes̱/), also known as Hilerán (/ileˈɾãn/), or the Tevren Language (lla çear tevressa) is a Southeast Ephenian Aeranid Language originating in the Çien-lli-Tevrén region of northern Hileria, and has around 12 million speakers throughout the nation of Tevrén, where it is the official language, as well as another 100 thousand speakers in Fasser.

Tevrés is a member of the Hilero-Aeranid group of languages, which evolved from several dialects of Late Aeranir spoken in Hileria after the fall of the Aeranid Empire in the 12th century BTC. Tevrés began to blossom as a literary language in the 6th and 7th centuries BTC, mainly from southern port cities under Fasser control, such as Azcotive and Lludazfassín. Modern Tevrés is most heavily influenced by these southern dialects and the dialects spoken around Çien-lli-Tevrén to the north, especially after these two regions were united in 36 BTC into Tevrén Vuis.

Tevrés is closely related to the Hilero-Vallic group of languages in the north east, such as Morrazol. It is less related to Ilesse, which is spoken in the region of Ilea. Nevertheless, these languages are often conflated under the banner of 'Tevrés,' or more specifically 'Hilerán.'

Name of the Language

The word tevrés descends from Aeranir tibōrissus, referring to the Tiborer, an Anderian tribe which settled throughout Hileria in the wake of the Aeranid Empire. The Tiborer also lent their name to Tevrén, from tibōrāniun.

All Hilero-Aeranid languages, including Ilesse, which is technically an Eastern-Aeranid language, are often colloquially referred to as tevrés. The term hilerán is occasionally used for this purpose instead. The languages of Tevrén Vuis may be called lla çear vuis (proper language), llos tevrés vuis (proper Tevrés), or vuyán in order to differentiate it from other hilerán languages.
