Nevurusarese Language

The Nevurusarese language (Lâpung Nevurusaingâ, Halēnawega: ꦭꦺꦥꦸꦁ꧊ꦤꦼꦙꦸꦫꦸꦱꦫꦶꦚꦺ) is a Kadaic language spoken by the people of Mejakepai. It serves as the official language of Mejakepai and one of the Nakiles, the Queendom of Neruvusari.

The Neruvusarese language is known to have a reptilian sound to it, namely due to the majority population, the Javepakata species speaking it. There is another dialect of Neruvusarese known as Crude Neruvusarese, which is spoken by largely by the non-Javepakatan population, or those who are not reptilians, being able to speak it for the first time. The language is also referred to as the Common Language, as it is spoken by every population and race within Kada.

History
Nevurusarese traces its roots back to a trade ledger that dates back over 600 years ago. The language had significantly took shape when the Queendom of Neruvusari started to dominate the region. The language itself derived from a language known simply as Proto-Neruvusarese, which is currently undeciphered. Influences from Old Kunuvan (also undeciphered) can be found within the current form of the language, and has lonewords that had been introduced into the language over the years.

Speakers
Mejakepai uses the Neruvusarese language as an official language of the country in all documentations, government business, business transactions, everyday speaking and is taught to youths as well as other groups on the island that are subjects of the Mejakepai as a common lingua franca. It has a large prominence within the Queendom of Nevurusari, as it is the origin of the language, as well as the Imperial Capital of Peiklaten where foreigners usually learn the language to speak to the locals.

Script
Nevurusarese is written in two primary scripts, Halēnawega, or traditional script, and Gimēnawega, or common script.

Halēnawega
Primary Article: Halēnawega Script

Halēnawega (Ha: ꦲꦭꦼꦴꦤꦮꦼꦒ) is the traditional script whom with Nevurusarese has been written with for hundreds of years. It is an abugida, with each glyph representing a syllable. The core of each glyph represents the consonant, and a system of surrounding diacritics determines the rest of the syllable. The script also possesses an intricate system of punctuation and epistolary marks, used in both artistic and documentative writing. ꦭꦠꦼꦢꦮꦼꦰ꧊ꦏꦼꦩꦼ꧊ꦏ꧀ꦗꦴꦤꧏ꧉

Gimēnawega
Gimēnawega is a modern script used to write Nevurusarese, created by new foreign influence in the region. It is an alphabet, with a unique glyph for each sound. The script is also used for the other languages of the region, such as Neo-Kunuvic and Koravic.

Inspirations from Earth
As with all languages constructed on Stoneworks, the Neruvusarese language takes its inspirations from the real world. It is a largely Austronesian inspired language (mainly Javanese) with mixtures of the Minoan language within. Due to Minoan being untranslated and thus, impossible at the current time to truly base a language on it, Ancient Greek is instead used within the admixture. There is also a few inspirations from Sanskrit within the language, due to the influences of the Nagas, which speak a language largely resembling Dravidic languages.1
