In Eevo, "Tergetian languages" (Terjedib or łynøñ Terjed) refers to naturally evolved vernacular descendants of Classical Windermere, whereas "Windermere" (Dymeeib or łynøñ Dymee) refers to either Classical Windermere or (Revived) Modern Windermere. Some Trician languages such as Clofabosin only use "Windermere" (dameserotin) for Modern Windermere and use "Tergetian" (tergetoserotin) for the naturally evolved clade rooted in CWdm. Netagin uses Qašenin ("Ashanian") for Classical Windermere, Dameaqin for Modern Windermere, and Tyrgetin for Tergetian vernaculars.
Some Tergetian languages are:
- Pradiul
- Trây
- Sătmașian
- Yengsüc Nengscăy (crackfic Tricin; non-canon)
Common features

- Verbal nouns treated ergatively like in Irish ("my love to/by-him" means "his love for me") [this should be a Standard Average Talman feature]
- Lots of auxiliaries, e.g. for tense marking, or things like "marbeh lisloach" 'forgives often' (shared by Anbirese)
- As in Modern Tseer, marks pluractionality by pluralizing the verbal noun
- always using im- or iN- for plurals (this got into Modern Windermere)
- construct state marked by a reflex of the CWdm 3sg.m possessive pronoun in
