The '''Annerish''' language (''ın beàırlet Annrach'' / ''ᛂᛓᛆᛁᛧᚳᛁᛐᛅᚱᚭᚷ'') is an early-split [[:w:Germanic languages|Germanic]] language spoken by the inhabitants of the [[Verse:Annerish|Anneries]] (''ne hAnnray'' / ''ᛂᚺᛅᚱᛆᚢ''), two archipelagos emerging from the [[:w:Rockall_Basin|Rockall Plateau]] (''Dóray'' / ''ᚿᚭᛧᛆᚢ'') and [[:w:Porcupine_Seabight|Porcupine Bank]] (''Luínır'' / ''ᚳᚢᛂᚿᛁᛧ'') off the west coast of Ireland and Scotland. <br>
The '''Annerish''' language (''ın beàırlet Annrach'' / ''ᛂᛓᛆᛁᛧᚳᛁᛐᛅᚱᚭᚷ'') is an early-split [[:w:Germanic languages|Germanic]] language spoken by the inhabitants of the [[Verse:Annerish|Anneries]] (''ne hAnnray'' / ''ᛂᚺᛅᚱᛆᚢ''), two archipelagos emerging from the [[:w:Rockall_Basin|Rockall Plateau]] (''Dóray'' / ''ᚿᚭᛧᛆᚢ'') and [[:w:Porcupine_Seabight|Porcupine Bank]] (''Luínır'' / ''ᚳᚢᛂᚿᛁᛧ'') off the west coast of Ireland and Scotland. <br>


It is mostly attested in two distinct forms, namely: Old Annerish and Middle Annerish. Only a handful of vital pagan religious texts survive in the older language, first put to manuscript in the 7th century, though likely composed a couple of centuries earlier. Despite having been affected by a series of phonological and morphological changes that had radically altered its appearance compared to other old Germanic languages, these ancient verse and prose exhibit abundant vocabulary of Germanic stock, albeit under a prestigeous [[:w:Goidelic languages|Goidelic]] superstratum. <br>
It is mostly attested in two distinct forms, namely: Old Annerish and Middle Annerish. Only a handful of vital religious texts survive in the older language, first put to manuscript in the Ⅶ<sup>th</sup> century on ''Luínır'' (Luynier), though likely composed a couple of centuries earlier (possibly on [[w:Builg|mainland Ireland]]). After centuries of [[:w:Celtic languages|Celtic]] influence and diglossia, Old Annerish verse and prose still exhibit abundant vocabulary of Germanic stock peeking through the prestigeous [[:w:Goidelic languages|Goidelic]] superstratum. <br>


By the time of the Middle period, after centuries of diglossia, the [[:w:Celtic languages|Celtic]] influence has made the cognate language unrecognizeable to the [[:w:Viking age|Norsemen]], who ally with their distant cousins against the Christians of the British Isles and become integral to Annerish culture, lending doublets (mostly nominal) in the process. <br>
An [[:w:Paleo-European_languages|Old European]] substratum has also left its unique mark on the language and more specifically on the sociolect of men - the ''Ceccra'' - which has been driving innovation ever since the earliest of texts. Influence from the original indigenous inhabitants of the Luynier archipelago may also be found in the [[:w:Animism|animistic]], [[:w:Polytheism|polytheistic]] [[w:Ethnic_religion|ethnic religion]]. Despite countless Gaelic missions and continuous contact with Christendom, the Annerish have resisted conversion and developed a rich and complex [[w:Natural_theology|theology]] of their own. By the turn of the Ⅷ<sup>th</sup> century, the islands around ''Dóray'' (Dorey) are settled with the help of the fellow heathen [[w:Viking_age|Vikings]] who would lend many doublets in the process. This is the start of the Middle period and the "Golden Age" of Annerish literature and culture.  
 
Earlier, a unique substratum, likely [[:w:Paleo-European languages|Old European]], had left its mark on the language and more specifically on the sociolect of men - the Ceccra - which is driving innovation ever since the earliest of texts. Influence from the original indigenous inhabitants of the archipelago can also be felt in the pragmatics of the different registers of speech. Despite the relentless invasions of Gaelic missionaries, an unmatched matriarchal social order and polytheistic worldview have been steadily developing in the nation for over a millennium which is reflected extensively throughout the known literature that has unfortunately declined after a brutal period of English colonisation in the 1700's. <br>
