Culture

Major language groups and dialects

While all bedouin speak common, among each other, most speak bedine.  Bedine is a very diverse tongue with numerous dialects largely influenced by the region's major trade partners, for example the Estrean dialect has a lot of aradanic and sarlonaic influences, where as the Sheibian dialect has more southranish influences.  While most of the roots are the same, a lot of the finer points differ greatly, so more complex statements may not be understood between dialects of further apart places.
