Ilda is the equivalent of Ancient Greek in my con-world of Radael.
Most of our knowledge of Ilda comes from surviving literature that was not destroyed by the Moshurian Pillage of Ilda[1], such as Zeror of Ilda's Ildaīsi Mondenikās[2], which has been invaluable in the reconstruction of the Ildan language, as well as its long-spanning history.
It is part of the Yeldhic superfamily of languages, and most likely developed from Proto-Yeldhic, despite Ilda being located in the Paleoyeldhic strip.
Origin
Much of the Ildan language we know of today was taken from Zeror of Ilda's Ildaīsi Mondenikās, who wrote the historical compendium in both Moshurian and Ilda, allowing linguists and researchers to decrypt what was written. Additionally, many medical terms in Moshurian originate in Ilda, such as zudözaba from Ildan sudusapās, meaning "tibia". However, not all vocabulary could be retrieved from the Ildaīsi Mondenikās and other texts alone- so many words are comparatively reconstructed. These reconstructed words are usually taken from other languages such as Moshurian, and are labeled with an *(asterisk) at the beginning of a word.

- ^ Following the defeat of Ilda at the hands of Moshurian horsemen, said horsemen then pillaged the region(that had been steadily declining until this defeat) in about a week, which Zeror called the ēvlotās be ogadibakās(Week of Destruction).
- ^ The original Ildaīsi Mondenikās was lost in the Pillage, and thus after Zeror's capture by the Moshurians, he rewrote it in full in both Ildan and Moshurian, allowing linguists to decipher the Ildan language.
