'''Allas''' /ˈal(ː)as/ one of the official and most widely spoken languages of the Tellurian (''Terran, Earthen, Earthican'') Empire. It is descended from Post-Modern English, having undergone a vowel shift quite reminiscent of the ones between Proto-Germanic and Modern English. Majority of these shifts first occurred in British Commonwealth, although some influence can be attributed to language change in the United States (before the growth of Yropion in that region), with notable examples including Australia, England, New Zealand and South Africa. In addition to the vowel shifts, some somewhat more sporadic or irregular consonant shifts and cluster simplifications occurred over time, combined with an evolution of the grammar system.

Allas is technically considered to be in a Sprachbund with Yropion, Syðian (Kestian), which represent the three main European derived languages of the Tellurian Empire - derived from English, General European and Castilian respectively. It is in physical contact with Syðian in Eastern Australia, Oceania and most of North America, and the same with Yropion in Africa, Europe and once again North America.

Outside of Earth though, its domination is much weaker, despite it still being widespread. Space colonisation has led to diverse cultures appearing, and as such, entire planets may be dominated by what is considered a minority (or dead) language on Earth.
