DRACONIAN LANGUAGE FULL

Much like the folk who speak it, Orc is a harsh and violent language, full of sharp delivery and hard consonants. It was first used in Cheliax among the halfling slave population and eventually spread across Avistan and Garund. The language of halflings is believed to have developed from a coded version of Taldane and Varisian. Like many other racial languages, its construction is a clear reflection of the cultural priorities of its speakers: gnoll has 37 words for the term 'slave' and only two for 'work'. This language is hard for non- gnolls to understand and speak, as it is made up of countless barks, growls and yips. It is an extremely flexible language, containing a plethora of terms related to subservience, fear, and death. Goblin is shared by the Goblin, Bugbear, and Hobgoblin races. It has changed dramatically since it was first introduced to Golarion, a process which has by no means halted.

In terms of the sheer number of words in its vocabulary, Gnome is the largest language known. First used by the giant slaves of the runelords in the time before Earthfall, it spread to the rest of Golarion after the destruction of that realm. The language of the giants that exists today is a mixture of an older form (called Original Giant) and Thassilonian. The elven alphabet contains thirty-three letters (twenty-four consonants and nine vowels). Scholars conjecture that it was formed when elven speakers of Sylvan tried to introduce grammatical rules and vocabulary from both Celestial and Draconic. Elven Д®lven is believed to be among the eldest, if not the eldest of the languages mortals speak on Golarion. It shares some aspects with Terran, including the runic alphabet. Dwarven Дwarven is a clipped language of hard consonants and guttural pronunciation. Speakers of Elven or Sylvan may be able to discern a few individual words here and there, but even they remain baffled without a greater context to place them in. This language has been guarded so vigilantly by the druids of Golarion that it remains a secret language to this day. Because of this, nearly all other languages can trace some roots back to this primordial tongue. It is believed that Draconic is among the oldest, if not the oldest language of the multiverse. A crude pidgin of it is also spoken by marsh giants, and is supposedly even more disgusting to hear. This language of croaks and belched pops is spoken by the boggards of the Mushfens in Varisia. The language of the aboleth is one of the oldest on the face (and below the waters) of Golarion.
