In [[Verse:Angai|Angai]], '''Thean''' (/ˈθiːən/, natively ''shreeñ²⁴ Thiidh³³'') or '''Theic''' is a family of analytic monosyllabic tonal languages in the [[Trans-Sarnathian languages|Trans-Sarnathian]] family, spoken in Æm Múr. Thean is head-initial and SVO. Thean is inspired by Athabaskan languages; Modern Standard Thean in particular is inspired by Northern Athabaskan languages.
''Thean'' is derived from ''Zzea'' /θīə/, the [[Kua]] pronunciation of the place name ''Thiidh³³''.
Thean is natively written with logographs.
== Phonology of Modern Standard Thean ==
Modern Standard Thean is one of the more conservative varieties of Modern Thean. Other Thean lects have lost some or all finals.
