'''Dodellian''' (native name ''dʰóódʰelo wisedʰés'') is one of the two official languages of [[Verse:Tricin/Dodellia|Dodellia]] (the other being [[Clofabosin]]). It's inspired phonologically by PIE and Algonquian languages, and its grammar is head-marking and head-final like Turkic languages.
 
It is related to [[Old Shalian|Shalian]].
