The '''Eyalian''' language (''Ejale ena'', [ɛ.ˈjɑ.lɛ. ɛ.ˈnɑ]) is a Western language in the '''Ketan''' language family. It was originally spoken by the '''Eyans''' and slowly spread with the expanse of the Oare Empire eastwards. It later split into two major dialects: ''Tare'' and ''Kei'' ("west" and "east" respectively). Both dialects are still mutually intelligible with each other, but Keian is nowadays treated as a separate language from Tarnan, which is commonly named Eyalian, or Eyalian Proper. Both dialects are used as spoken langauges in their respective republics as official languages, but the only official language of the whole United Republics is '''Tar Eyalian'''.

It is also the primary liturgical language of '''Ayatarvism''' (''Le-Ajatarvo'' - the main religion of the eastern part of the continent) and the predominant language of most works of the Ajatar philosophy. Old Eyan, in its variants, was the lingua franca of the former Oare Empire and lands to the east of it. Even nowadays Tar Eyalian is considered to be a language of high culture in these regions and is commonly taught in educational institutions.

The language became standardised by the time of the Oare Empire, about a thousand years ago by various writers and scholars. This period is generally referred to as Old Eyalian. The language spoken between after the split into two main dialects is generally referred to Modern Eyalian, or Tar Eyalian. This shift is marked by several grammatical and phonetic changes, although Old Eyalian is still generally intelligible to both Tar and Kei speakers.
