While most of Ewige's vocabulary is indigenous, it has borrowed a large number of terms from nearby languages of the Eurasian steppe, particularly [[w:Russian language|Russian]], [[w:Kazakh language|Kazakh]], and [[w:Mongolian language|Mongolian]]. More recently, English and, to a lesser extent, Mandarin loanwords have entered the language as well. | While most of Ewige's vocabulary is indigenous, it has borrowed a large number of terms from nearby languages of the Eurasian steppe, particularly [[w:Russian language|Russian]], [[w:Kazakh language|Kazakh]], and [[w:Mongolian language|Mongolian]].
