Tíogall is a pluricentric language - it is an official language in three countries, the peninsular [[Verse:Duínidhe|Duínidhe]] with more dialect diversity, the larger [[Verse:Neoibhir|Neoibhir]] with less dialect diversity, and [[Verse:Phormatin]] in addition to [[Phormatolidin]]. It is the largest Talmic language in terms of number of speakers. Like most modern Talmic languages, {{PAGENAME}} is a descendant of [[Thensarian]]. It is spoken on the northwest coast of the continent of Etalocin (called ''Éatha'' in Tíogall) on the planet of Clotricin.

Modern Standard Tíogall arose as a literary koiné from disparate earlier Tíogallic dialects descended from [[Old Tíogall]] from around fT 1160dd (1968). Tíogall rapidly gained prominence over a larger area in Northern Talma and came to serve as a lingua franca for the Talma region until [[Clofabosin]] gained global standing. Tíogall is still widely taught as a foreign language today.

To emphasize a pronoun or an inflected preposition, ''-na''/''-ne'' is added to the pronoun.

In archaic usage, ''séid'' is used as an honorific pronoun when speaking to a person of high social standing or when two people of high social standing converse with each other. In modern Tíogall, this usage is restricted to books, movies, games, ... when depicting the past or past-like settings (such as historical fiction or fantasy).

In modern Tíogall, this usage is restricted to e.g. books, movies, games, ... when depicting the past or past-like settings (such as historical fiction or fantasy), and in BDSM contexts when a slave refers to a master.
