==Writing== | |||
There are three different scripts in use for Evandorian languages: | |||
* Most languages in the family use an adapted variant of the Íscégon script: such languages include all of the Western and Central branches plus Holenagic (isolate among the family), Nordûlaki, Spyŋun, Hyxynen, and Gathura (all Northern), Auralian and Gazimyük (Southern) and, since the last fifteen years, also Menbörük and Avathian (both Narenian languages). | |||
* The Nivarese script is mainly used in the southern part of Evandor, and is the writing system used for Nivarese and the Agrôkian languages (all Southern), the Kegdevian languages, and Megorian (a Narenian language). | |||
* The Véraj script, originally an offshoot of the Nivarese script, is used for the Landward Velken languages (except Hyxynen) and Ëgusic (a Narenian language). | |||
