|quote=The Roshterian speech is truly an infinite trove of jewels for the student of languages ... While its words display some affinity to our own language, they are even more akin to the language of the Nurians and that of the Tíogall, indeed to such a degree that its common provenance with the latter cannot be doubted ... Rather curiously, the Roshterian tongue is spoken with consonants with tongue-curling not unlike those of the Gulyasj language ... and has a proclivity towards using lengthy words for single utterances where smaller words and prefixes combine in a quite volatile manner, reminding one of the language of Old Tíogall texts ... In my view this attests to the great depth of time in which the Talmic languages separated from their forebear. | |quote=The Roshterian speech is truly an infinite trove of jewels for the student of languages ...
