Padmanábha or Bhadhaghanábha 'coast language' (modern: Pälmănabi /pælmənAβI/, or Bediginabi /βEðIγInAβI/) is a Camalic language spoken in Irta's Morocco. Like English and Togarmite, it has changed very little since 900 AD. It has borrowed from Camalanàbha during the Old Padmanábha stage.
The name Padmanábha is inspired by the Sanskrit word padma meaning lotus.
Its orthography is the same as in Old Bhadhaghanábha, but it underwent Khmerization from Old Padmanábha aspirated stops. Old Padmanábha r also became uvular and vocalized. This has resulted in modern Padmanábha having approximately as many vowels as Danish.
Stops should be Greek/Spanish-like
