Verdurian: Difference between revisions

Verdurian is a member of the '''Eastern language phylum'''. This derives from a [[proto-language]] called '''proto-Eastern''', spoken by invaders of the Cadhinorian and Xurnese plains, about 4,000 years before the present time in Rosenfelder's universe. Some of the Eastern invaders were Cuzeian, while others were Cadhinorian. Cadhinorians picked up [[civilization]] from Cuzeians (who left behind such works as the ''Count of Years'', showing the clear influence of [[J. R. R. Tolkien|Tolkien]]).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.zompist.com/ciroma.htm |title=The Count of Years : 1 |publisher=Zompist.com |access-date=2015-05-30}}</ref> The Cadhinorians spoke a classical language called '''Cadhinorian''' (its relationship to Verdurian is analogous to that of [[Latin language|Latin]] to [[Spanish language|Spanish]]). After the fall of the Cadhinorian Empire, Cadhinorian developed into several daughter languages, among them Old Verdurian, which evolved later into Modern Verdurian.

The fictional country of Verduria has an [[embassy]] in [[Linköping]], [[Sweden]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://relaz.pl/magazyn,wymyslone-jezyki,824 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120628154646/http://relaz.pl/magazyn,wymyslone-jezyki,824 |archive-date=2012-06-28 |title=Wymyślone języki, Jakub Kowalski - relaz.pl |access-date=2015-05-30}}</ref>
