Classification
Tzaloxian is the proto-language of the Tzaloxic language family. Most Trician scholars believe it's a language isolate, though there are pseudolinguistic theories connecting it to languages of Bjeheond.
Modern Tzaloxic varieties are still spoken in southern Txapoalli though by very few people.
The ancient language is popular among college students and professors in the Talmosphere, many of whom pronounce it with a thick Eevo accent.

The sounds written f, s and z before i are commonly pronounced /ç/, /ʃ/ and /tʃ/ respectively.

- the triple vowels aä iï uü äa ïi üu /ɐɑ: ɨi: ɨu: ɒ:ə i:e u:o/
- the overlong diphthongs äi aï äu aü ïa iä ïu iü üa uä üi uï /ɑ:ɪ əi: ɑ:ʊ əu: ijə~iʝ:ə jɑ: ijo~iʝ:o ju: uwə~uɣʷ:ə wɑ: uwe~uɣʷ:e wi:/
