Attian (Attian Hevriti: אתנְי, Latin: Athnai, /aθˈnai̩/) is an Attamian language spoken in the Caucasus, across the borders of Georgia, Armenia and Turkey. It is not known to have any transparent genetic connections to any other language, despite a number of attempts of classification.

The language has been documented in the Caucasus since at least the 9^th century AD, with the discovery of the Hayastani documents, (Attian: Egrava ta Hayaztan, חגרְוְ טְ חְיְזטְן) a Greek transcript of the languages in the Transcaucasian settlements. The now fragile documents were written by the Byzantine Greek philosopher Antenor Erevanon, in an effort to investigate the ethnic diversity in the region:

I have seen many different men of various posture and pride passing these roads, none less awe-inspiring than the other: The Armenioi, an intelligent breed, clever and calculating merchants speaking a language not too dissimilar to our own. [...] Then there are the Caphessonioi, peaceful, tranquil, with a timid stance towards strangers, speaking a language using the very letters of our own alphabet. The Attnicoi on the other hand, are interesting, a reclusive tribe of people, shy to speak with their proper, unintelligible speech; preferring to use that of their neighbours [...]

- Antenor Erevanon, 9^th century Judaeo-Greek philospher and settler

Etu ethnema ta etu anzan uʾummen. This language was once featured. Maye ta goyotita, ta ethahama, veta vemaguma, uʾunme mumnayyir. Thanks to its level of quality, plausibility and usage capabilities, it has been voted as featured.

The language is being created by the user and administrator Waahlis of Linguifex. Obviously, and almost self-evidently, it has no native speakers and is not the official language anywhere else than in an office. It has no other purpose than to be an excellent display of his personal debauchery and pleasures.
