'''Midhirian''' (''MEER-iən'') is a heavily Hibernized variety of spoken historical Arabic native to the Crackfic Trician island nation of Midhir (natively ''el Miḋḋir'' [ə̟lˈmɪ̟jːɪ̟ːɾ{{lam}}ʲ]; Irta Irish ''Tīrı vMīre'', after the Old Irish legendary figure Midir), an independent country where it's an official language alongside English. Midhir is located off the continent of Cualand. The native name for the language is ''el Miḋḋirìje'' or ''et teanga Miḋḋirìje'', but speakers may simply call the language ''teangatna'' [ˈt̪ʰæ̃ːʔʶʌt{{den}}ʶʰn{{den}}ʶʌ] 'our language'. | '''Midhirian''' (''MEER-iən'') is a heavily Hibernized variety of spoken historical Arabic native to the Crackfic Trician island nation of Midhir (natively ''el Miḋḋir'' [ə̟lˈmɪ̟jːɪ̟ːɾ{{lam}}ʲ]; Irta Irish ''Tīrı vMīre'', after the Old Irish legendary figure Midir), an independent country where it's an official language alongside English.

Irish loanwords, called ''clèm Ȝagmìje'' (from Arabic ''{{ayin}}aǧamiyyah'' 'foreign' → 'Irish'; Maqam Ajam in Irta comes from Ionian and Mixolydian in Irish music), comprise over half of Midhirian vocabulary. Besides Irish, Midhirian has borrowed from French, [[Hyperfrench|Nyvierfusiez]] and English. Some Irish vocabulary in Midhirian, called ''Nùa-Ȝagmìje'' 'neo-<i>Ȝagmìje</i>', are in fact coinages by Midhirians. It's the only Irtan Semitic language that evolved naturally under Celtic influence (Irta Modern Hebrew was revived partly by Celtic speakers and partly by Riphean speakers). Midhirian is somewhat mutually intelligible with many Irta Neo-Arabic languages, and is even intelligible with Irish and [[Ăn Yidiș]] in some formal registers. | Irish loanwords, called ''clèm Ȝagmìje'' (from Arabic ''{{ayin}}aǧamiyyah'' 'foreign' → 'Irish'; Maqam Ajam in Irta comes from Ionian and Mixolydian in Irish music), comprise over half of Midhirian vocabulary.
