Mavortians are currently believed to have been transplanted to Mavors by unknown means about a 100,000 years ago. Thus Common Mavortian cannot feasibly be linked to any known language family on Terra although the more enthusiastic 'lumpers' and outright Goropists among linguistic scholars have certainly given it a try. Common Mavortian derives from the primary language spoken in  the former Empire of Qelidad and its trading sphere. The standard dialect of the language as prescribed by the Mavortian Economic Community is described here.
Minervans are currently believed to have been transplanted to Minerva by unknown means about a 100,000 years ago. Thus Common Minervan cannot feasibly be linked to any known language family on Terra although the more enthusiastic 'lumpers' and outright Goropists among linguistic scholars have certainly given it a try. Common Minervan derives from the primary language spoken in  the former Empire of Qeladar and its trading sphere. The standard dialect of the language as prescribed by the Minervan Economic Community is described here.
