Celabrian (Celabrian: girṭeʒ [ˈɡiɾtʼɛd͡z]) is an Indo-European language.

Introduction

Etymology

The name Celabrian comes from the tribal name Celabrii (Greek: Κελάβριοι), from Proto-Celabrian kelabrias "of a warrior", which is derived from kelabēr "warrior" (literally "spear-bearer"), from kelas "spear" (< PIE *gʷelH- "to throw, pierce") + -bēr "bearer" (< PIE *bʰer- "to bear, carry").

The endonym girṭeʒ comes from gir "Celabrian" (< PIE *wiHrós "man, warrior") + ṭeʒ "language" (< PIE *dn̥ǵʰwéh₂s "tongue"). The formal language is known as bonṭeʒ [ˈbontʼɛd͡z], from bon "clear, eloquent" (< PIE *bʰeh₂- "to shine; to speak"). The classical language is known as akrăṭeʒ [ˈakʰɾətʼɛd͡z] (Classical Celabrian: akʰra tanci [ˈakʰɾa ˈtant͡si]), from akr "precise" (< PIE *h₂ḱrós "sharp"). The colloquial language is known as łødṭeʒ [ˈɫœtʼːɛd͡z], from łød "masses, common folk" (< PIE *h₁léwdʰis "people").
