==Introduction==
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' /ɛ/ ''eh'' (native: ''jarb-jarb Æ'' /jaˁʱjaˁʱ ɛ/ 'Æ words'; [[Windermere]]: ''cduay Ä'') is a minority [[Lakovic languages|Lakovic language]] spoken in Bjeheond. It's inspired by Danish.
Æ is meant to be the tonal language which I always wanted in Tricin - one evolved from a nontonal, vaguely Germanic language. It has several obvious nods to Danish, such as the spelling, stød as part of a register tone system, and pharyngealized vowels.
