'''Eḥeiθymmen Arjad Eḥðeirymme Amran''' or just '''Eḥeiθymme''' or '''Amranuwwa''' is the dominant language of the people of Amran.
 '''Eḥeiθymme''' is characterized by significant word-internal sound-change, a "root-and-pattern" morphology, and strict word order. '''Eḥeiθymme''' readily accepts words of non-native origin, but tends to force said loans into its morphological paradigm.

 ===Setting===
-'''Eḥeiθymme''' is the lingua franca of Amran. The people of Amran are exceptionally diverse in language, culture, and identity, existing at the time of the ''Leaves'' stories as a nearly totally collapsed regency.  Amran is a temperate to taiga biome, dominated by thick forests, abundant snowfall in many regions, and mountains dominating the terrain inland. Much of the population is concentrated along the coastal regions, while most of the land lay uninhabited by humans.

The people of Amran are exceptionally diverse in language, culture, and identity, existing at the time of the ''Leaves'' stories as a nearly totally collapsed regency.  Amran varies across its vast landscape from a temperate to a taiga biome, dominated by thick forests, abundant snowfall in many regions, and mountains dominating the terrain inland.

 ===Etymology===
-'''Eḥeiθymme''' is a word built from nominal form of the root '''∅-Y-T''' indicating "language, speaking, articulated speech", rendered as '''ait''', which morphs to '''eiθ''', the '''ah-''' prefix, which morphs to '''eḥ-''', formulates proper nouns out of common nouns, and the suffix '''-umma''', which morphs to '''-ymme''', which is the augmentive suffix. All morphing in sounds are accounted for in the section on sound change. '''Eḥeiθymme''', then, means "the great, principle, dominant, important language".
