'''{{SUBPAGENAME}}''' ('' | '''{{SUBPAGENAME}}''' (''Hivantudannguáh'' /hivantudaŋːuáχ/ or ''Hivantáa dannguáh'' /hivantáː daŋːuáχ/; ''hivantúh'' is from {{recon|sebʰ-}} 'reflexive' + {{recon|-ntós}} 'Caland adjective suffix', thus 'of [our] own', or ''Prisinitudannguáh'' "natural language") is an isolated branch within the Indo-European language family, loosely inspired by Greenlandic, Old Persian and Proto-Celtic. Before the era of Hivantish literature, a specially constructed language referred to as ??? "refined language" was used in religious and other writings; with the advent of Hivantish druidism, the common language became increasingly popular as the language of literature, hence the designation "natural language". | ||
Ancient Hivantish was a classical satem IE language with a grammar very similar to today's Balto-Slavic languages and had a significant corpus of druidic lore. This continued through the Middle Hivantish period where the language underwent considerable simplification, along the lines of Bulgarian or Persian or Welsh, and an influx of words from Inuit, Romance and [[Azalic]] languages. Modern Hivantish is very similar to Middle Hivantish but underwent a spelling reform due to the sometimes idiosyncratic and irregular ways in which non-Romance vocabulary in Hivatish was transcribed in the Roman alphabet. | Ancient Hivantish was a classical satem IE language with a grammar very similar to today's Balto-Slavic languages and had a significant corpus of druidic lore.
