'''Aeranir''', also known as '''coeñar aerānir''' (''language of the Aerans''), or '''coeñar indëris''' (''language of the capital''), is an Iscaric language in the [[Maro-Ephenian language group]]. It was originally spoken by the [[Aerans]], developed in the deserts of Northern [[Iscaria]] in the city of [[Telrhamir]], and spread with the expanse of the [[Aeranid Empire]] throughout [[Ephenia]], as well as parts of [[Eubora]] and [[Syra]]. It later developed into the Aeranid languages, such as [[Dalot]], [[Ilesse]], [[Iscariano]], [[Îredese]], [[S'entigneis]], and [[Tevrés]]. It is still used throughout Ephenia as a language of theology, science, medicine, literature, and law. | '''Aeranir''', also known as '''coeñar aerānir''' (''language of the Aerans''), or '''coeñar indëris''' (''language of the capital''), is an Iscaric language in the [[Maro-Ephenian language group]].

The period before that is generally referred to as Old Aeranir. The language spoken between the 15th and 12th centuries BTC is generally referred to Late Aeranir. This shift is marked by several grammatical and phonetic shifts. After that period, Aeranir began to splinter off into the various Aeranid languages. A form of Classical Aeranir called New Aeranir or Medieval Aeranir remained in use in official writings even after this period. | ||
