They're all from the Northern Kingdoms. Altera is the entire world. the map is of the Nothern Kingdoms.
I do know this. But my point still stands, Altera is a big place. I have people next door from Poland, 2 doors down from Germany. People can move, and it's illogical to think that all of an entire race would speak the exact same language.

Bear in mind that moving is extremely hard and a foreigner would have to accustom to climates and the language of the place itself. I'd suppose that after moving they'd learn [NK] common tongue and their children would learn it and eventually the foreign language would be forgotten.

Not if the parents thought their children the home tongue. But, Mich has stroked my faces, all's good in the world

Right, changed the Elven tongue name to actually mean Elven in Elven.... (Say that three times fast) Also added the Engem Language to the post, anything else?

If it's not too much to ask, could you just add the fact the Engem language usually sounds African, with a good amount of Carribean and Celtic sounding words thrown in there?

That's just corrupted Elves.....

I'm talking about, for example, Wood elves to sound quite rushed. High Elves to sound sto- I mean calm and relaxed and Dark Elves to sound harsher. Each language should be quite different too, but similar enough so that there are common words. If this all actually happened, including the part about human languages, I think many people from the lore team would despise me ehehehe

I will watch this... very subtly...

*walks in and falls over random spam, creating an awful noise*

Subtly from now on...

BY(!) the way, there are no wood elves OR high elves in Altera.
You mean native to Altera, or have we all been killed off?
