'''Sgewlan''' /skɛlən/ ''SKEL-uhn'' (''Sgewliv'' /ˈskɛ̃ʟiv/), in-universe often called '''Eevo''' /ˈeɪvoʊ/ ''AY-voh'' (in the native script, ꞰꞰⳘΔ /ˈɛivɔ/; from [[Old Eevo]] ''é-'' 'common' + ''bó'' 'language'), is a [[Talmic language]] belonging to the Tigolic branch. Eevo is now the most dominant modern language in [[Verse:Tricin|Tricin]]. The beginning of the modern Eevo language, dated to ca. fT 1150dd (1932), is often credited to the Sgewlan philosopher and poet [[Verse:Talma/Embisoom Grwid|Embisoom Grwid]], who wrote his works in the new phonetic, Clofabic-based orthography of his invention, instead of the old Talmic orthography largely based on [[Old Eevo]] pronunciation. [Grwid's orthography is still sensitive to etymology to some extent, as it reflects the original spelling in [[Windermere]] or [[Proto-Clofabic]] loanwords.] The name ''Eevo'' is a reference to the fact that it was a Sgewlan koiné. However, Modern Eevo has been a living language for about 360 years, approximately 1932-2292 (1150dd-13b0dd).
