Sähsch is a Germanic-based constructed language. Made by Ceige, it has previously been know by various names before, with various orthographies. Sähsch in its current incarnation is an attempt to consolidate previous versions of the language with a new and better balanced phonology, and discard features outside its scope. In-universe, it's speakers are largely European, and one could interpret the language and its culture as a reflection, parody, or idealisation of Northern continental Europe from the eyes of a descendent of its emigrants.
