| '''Dodellian''' (native name ''dʰóódʰelo wisedʰés'') is one of the two official languages of Dodellia (the other being [[Clofabosin]]). It's inspired phonologically by PIE and Algonquian languages, and its grammar is head-marking and head-final like Turkic languages. | | The '''Taba''' /tʰa˨pa˦/ language is a heavily tonal language of Kjàt Må̀. It evolved from a monosyllabic tonal language with more complex syllables by simplifying its phonemic inventory and phonotactics but not its tones. |
