'''{{PAGENAME}}''' /ɛ̄/ is a tonal Wiobic language.


==Introduction==
Æ is 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.
