'''[[Valian]]''' (''Välyatalle''  [ˈvæl.jɑˌtɑl.le], lit. ''"Good-speech"'') is an a priori artistic sketchlang inspired by the Finnic languages. In-universe, it is part of a very small language family of even sketchier sketchlangs, all spoken among various minority populations in Eurasia.

Typologically, Valian is a nominative-accusative, vaguely agglutinative language. Verbal and nominal morphology is relatively simple. Unmarked word order is SVO but as Valian verbs are able to encapsulate pronouns in an agglutinative fashion, variation is possible.
Celinese is a moderately inflected language. Nouns have not been declined for case since the "Middle Elithoan Celinese" era, but they still decline for number, and for grammatical gender in the plural. Pronouns still retain vestiges of the case system. Adjectives (which double as adverbs) are uninflected, whilst verbs inflect for person, mood and tense.

Celinese languages (several names in Celinese languages) are divergent dialects that form part of a macrolanguage that is the most spoken offshoot of the Tygenoci language family, and one of the major languages of the Northern hemisphere of Lorech. The spoken and written standard (Celinese languages: Celínec, pronounced [ˈkɛlinɛk]), a compromise based on the dialects of Perís and Ioðinbêr, is spoken as a first language by almost 400 million people, and understood by a further 950 million second language learners.

Thanks to its level of quality, plausibility and usage capabilities, it has been voted as featured.

Celinese is a moderately inflected language. Nouns have not been declined for case since the "Middle Elithoan Celinese" era, but they still decline for number, and for grammatical gender in the plural. Pronouns still retain vestiges of the case system. Adjectives (which double as adverbs) are uninflected, whilst verbs inflect for person, mood and tense.
