Tíogall is a pluricentric language - it is an official language in three countries, the peninsular Sceola with more dialect diversity, the larger Anbhair with less dialect diversity, and [[Verse:Phormatin]] in addition to [[Phormatolidin]]. It is the largest Talmic language in terms of number of speakers. Like most modern Talmic languages, {{PAGENAME}} is a descendant of [[Thensarian]]. It is spoken on the northwest coast of the continent of Etalocin (called ''Éatha'' in Tíogall) on the planet of Clotricin. | Tíogall is a pluricentric language - it is an official language in three countries, the peninsular Sceola with more dialect diversity, the larger Anbhair with less dialect diversity, and in [[Verse:Phormatin]] in addition to [[Phormatolidin]].

Modern Standard Tíogall arose as a literary koiné from disparate earlier Tíogallic dialects descended from [[Old Tíogall]] from around fT 1160dd (1968). Thanks in large part to the printing press, Tíogall rapidly gained prominence over a larger area in Northern Talma and came to serve as a lingua franca for northern mainland Talma. Today, Tíogall still enjoys status as a "cultured" language and is one of the most widely taught foreign languages. | Modern Standard Tíogall arose as a literary koiné from disparate earlier Tíogallic dialects descended from [[Old Tíogall]] from around fT 1160dd (1968).
