Sshal (SHAWL)

the Tongue of the Sshalke Kursudu

Sshal is common tongue of the tribes of Lizardfolk) that dwell in the the Chambray of northeastern Jerain. Sshal uses many physical gestures along with the sounds to create the word. Sshal has deep connections to other races languages, with the Sshalke who speak it having vocal range similar to Human, unlike others of their kind that have a more hissy whispering voice.

Sshal, like the people who speak, does not have a system of past or future tense. Everything is present to these people.
