Galoyseg (an toves Galoyseg /ən tɔvəs galøsəg/), or Galatian, is an Irtan P-(Hyper-)Celtic language spoken in what is our France. Today Galatian is a minority language; pretty much all its speakers are bilingual in Hyper-French, Riphean (an Azalic language), or Hivantish.

It's inspired by "Cornish but more Yiddish".

Noyves an uyskedh bîv in dur (Mae'r pysgod byw yn nofio mewn dŵr) /nøvəs ən yskəð biv ɪn dur/

umlaut from Old Galatian amlawd <- ṃbʰi-pleh₂-tus (amloys in Modern Galatian)

uyn, dew/diw, tri/teyr, peser, pim, hwekh, seyth, oyth, now, deg, uyn ar dheg, dew ar dheg, tri ar dheg, peser ar dheg, pim ar dheg, hwekh ar dheg, seyth ar dheg, oyth ar dheg, now ar dheg, uyens

Galatian uses the Danish number system:

  • 30: ledewens
  • 40: dewens
  • 50: lethriens
  • 60: thriens
  • 70: lephesrens
  • 80: pesrens
  • 90: lephimens
  • 100: kens
  • 1000: mîl
