Cet is a constructed language. Cet derives most of its vocabulary from Germanic languages with a small amount of Finno-Ugric and Turkic influence, with the grammar being similar to that of the Turkish or Hungarian language, as it is a highly agglutinative language with an SOV word order.
Cet has seen very many changes over the years, to a point that the original language file is barely recognizable as Cet anymore. Over time it has also shifted the goal from being the language for Ceticilia to being a personal project of Lily Jane Rotfels. In recent times, the Cet Consortium has helped a great deal with creating vocabulary and working out kinks.
