Qazhrian (/kɑːʒriən/ (K)AHZH-ree-uhn; natively: brits Qazhrem /brits ˈqaʒrem/) is a Talmic language spoken in Qazhra (from Thensarian Ȝactragē), a Talman country. It is descended from Thensarian.
External history
This language was originally called Benocian and was Romance- and Ashkenazi Hebrew-inspired, and it had a strong Portuguese flavor. Recently I decided to rework it, basing the aesthetic more on Breton.
Idea: Breton without mutations?
