It is also known as '''Ashanian''' (e.g. ''ne Qašenin'' in [[Netagin]], ''Xānimiz'' /ʃaːnimis/ in [[Naquian]]) or '''Tergetian''' (e.g. ''døludx Terged'' in [[Tseer]], ''tergetosin'' in [[Clofabosin]]) in various Trician languages. It is more distantly related to [[Tseer]], [[Tsrovesh]], and [[Häskä]]. | ||
Modern Windermere is a koine/lingua franca/creole arising from various Classical Windermere reading and interpretive traditions, and some scholars believe that Modern Windermere grammar doesn't directly continue that of Classical Windermere. An even more unorthodox view proposed by modern linguist Hăyad Săfărchal is that Modern Windermere shouldn't be thought of as a Lakovic language at all, unlike Tseer; he thinks it's a relexification of various non-Ashanic Lakovic languages and Netagin vernaculars with Classical Windermere words, and he proposes that it be renamed to ''fi cduay Biechănd'' or the Bjeheondian language. This hypothesis is challenged by Prăfin of Bălang and other scholars of creoles and sprachbunds in Tricin, who cited various historical intermediate stages of Windermere which appeared in writing and in folk songs. | Modern Windermere is a koine/lingua franca/creole arising from various Classical Windermere reading and interpretive traditions, and some scholars believe that Modern Windermere grammar doesn't directly continue that of Classical Windermere.

It derives from an old Bjeheondian runic alphabet, which was in turn an adaptation of an even older logographic writing system used by the Dwābisȝōlam (Wdm. ''Dwabis'olam'') civilization (from ancient Erkwisngwal). | ||
