'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is the ancestor of the Ftseezhic languages, a branch of the [[Proto-Mustlup|Mustlup]] family which includes [[Myuftseezh]], [[Chick Corean]] and [[Dry Icelandic]]. It's inspired by Old English.


This is a short reminder of the language format policy.
Numbers: sōecu, kvli, skō, mōj, fāxu, ə̄σē, czeþə̄, poŋud, cēan, xēatī, kvēotī, cīu


I. Write a short piece stating your intents and purposes when creating the language (Design goal, inspiration, ideas, and so on).
*> Myuftseezh: sec, kvliø, sko, moj, fax, øσiø, cziøþø, poŋd, cian, xiatiø, kviotiø, ciu
II. Write a short introduction to your language. (Who speaks it? When was it created? By whom? or what? are some example questions that can be answered here)
*> Dry Icelandic: sécy, pli, skó, móvi, fáhy, éσja, czjaþa, poŋyd, cján, hjáti, pjóti, cjú
III. Once done, try making sure everything is properly spelt so as to avoid unnecessary reader fatigue.
