Ancient Tevvic ([[w:Autonym|Autonym]]: {{l|tevo|त़ैव्वॉ॔ ता॔ण|tr=ťēvvó tā́ṇa}}, /cɛːʋ.ˈʋɔ ˈtɑː.ɳɑ/) was a language spoken in northern India, largely around the modern state of Uttarakhand. It is seemingly a member of the (unnamed) family, making it part of the so-called "Para-Germanic" branch of languages. Ancient Tevvic is immensely divergent, to the point it had become unintelligible to its closest relatives by at most 300 years after splitting from them. Being among the many colloquial languages spoken throughout India, Ancient Tevvic was considered a [[w:Prakrit|Prakrit]], despite not being Indo-Aryan in the slightest, though it would receive large influence from Sanskrit, much like the other languages of India, though it would largely avoid Sanskritization.


 
Ancient Tevvic is the primary ancestor of the Tevvic branch of languages, which is comprised of a small group of relatively distantly related languages from across southeast Asia, largely focused on the Indian subcontinent.

==History==
Ancient Tevvic split off from its relatives by about 750AD, the peoples having begun migrating to India likely due to the Turkic migrations into the lands.

All inflectable terms follow one of three stress patterns, ''acrostatic'' (initial stress), ''mesostatic'' (stressed ending), or ''kinetic''. ''kinetic'' stress originally entailed a moving stress, where it was acrostatic in some forms, but mesostatic in others, this "moving" stress has been leveled out, but the phonological effects remain, as in '''''मंह॔ः''''' (mạháh) but '''''मंग॔ः''''' (mạgáh).

===Nominals===
Nominals decline based on roughly 4 categories, those being ''number'', ''case'', ''gender'' (adjectives), and ''possessor'' (nouns). Noun roots may be derived for different genders, often for a semantic change.
