Dai (di)

the First Tongue

 

Considered one of the oldest languages of Aldern, along with Celestial and Draconic, Dai can be found as the seed in every language on the globe. As generations the language splintered into languages which branched even more.

 

A dead language in the modern day, true Dai, or any of its early dialects, has not been spoken in millennia. Its influence can be seen heaviest among the Elf languages.
