The Dictionary of Yezur
every word, in every tongue, and the roots and kinships that bind them
Many tongues are spoken across the world, and their words are woven together — descended from shared roots, borrowed across borders, and reshaped on every tongue that carries them. The Dictionary sets them side by side: what each word means, how it is spoken, and the family it springs from. Choose a way in below.
Ways into the words
Ancient tongues
The oldest recorded speech — Ancient Hertic and Gaillean among them — from which later languages descend.
Families & roots
Every tongue belongs to one of five families; follow a word back to the proto-language it grew from.
See also the encyclopedia of Yezur for the peoples who speak these tongues, and the map for where in the world they are spoken.
