'''Aoid''' (''aoidlíumh'' [[Help:IPA|[ˈiːdʲlʲĩw̃]]]) is an [[Esperantido|Esperanto-derived]] language influenced by the phonology of [[w:Irish language|Irish Gaelic]]. It is spoken primarily by members of the Céas na hAoidean; because of this, speakers of Aoid and members of the Céas are both (confusingly) called '''''aoidean''''', (<small>Aoid pronunciation:</small> [[Help:IPA|[ˈiːdʲən]]]) singular of ''aoid'' "child".

Aoid is the liturgical language of the Céas na hAoidean new religious movement, founded by Fí Deám in 65-Knees. The extent of the use of Aoid before the founding of the Céas is unclear; the general consensus is that the language developed from various groups of Esperantists, retroactively called the ''Fáirlean'', who settled on the bank of the [[w:Sanzu River|Sanzu River]]; after drinking the water of the Sanzu, they contracted [[w:Amnesia|viral amnesia]] which also garbled their speech, leading them to develop their unique Esperanto-derived language.
