Chlouvānem: Difference between revisions

'''Chlouvānem''', natively '''Chlouvānaumi dældā''' ("language of the Chlouvānem people"), is the most spoken language on the planet of Calémere (Chl.: ''Liloejāmna''). It is the official language of the Inquisition (''murkadhāna'') and its country, the Chlouvānem land (''Chlouvānaumi bhælā''<ref>Commonly ''murkadhāni bhælā'' “Land of the Inquisition”, officially referred to as ''Chlouvānaumi murkadhāni bhælā'' “Land(s) of the Chlouvānem Inquisition”) </ref>), and a lingua franca in many areas of the eastern part of the continent of Evandor. Despite the fact that local vernaculars in most of the Inquisition are in fact daughter languages of Chlouvānem or creoles based on it, the ''Chlouvānaumi dældā'' is a fully living language as every Chlouvānem person is bilingual in it and in the local vernacular, and in fact in the last half century the Chlouvānem language itself has been replacing some vernaculars as internal migrations have become more and more common. About 1,4 billion people on the planet define themselves as native Chlouvānem speakers, more than for any other Calémerian language.
