The Dagr Language

The Dagr people were Aikhsi who set foot on Arkodia thousands of years ago, they built monuments and settlements all over Tsedria. By the time of the Tsedric exodus the majority of the Dagr had gone extinct, their settlements abandoned, only a few select tribes still remained in southwestern Tsedria.
Since then their language has been lost, the Tsedrins did not record any information about it. Our only remnants are engravings on obelisks built around Tsedria and our writing system. The names of our letters are derived from Dagr words, from this knowledge we can piece together how the language might have sounded and begin to translate the ancient inscriptions.
The name "Dagr" comes from a reconstruction of the Dagr word for shrine or obelisk. Which is the first letter of the Azedrahi script.

Writing System

The Dagr script was composed of logograms which represent specific concepts. Later the glyphs became utilised to represent specific phonemes leading to the development of a syllabary of sorts. The logograms and syllabary were used in tandem, however when a glyph is used for its phonetic component or for its literal meaning is not differentiated which has become a hindrance in translation efforts.
The Dagr script would develop into the Azedrahi script.

Phonology

Dagr phonology shows many similarities to Elder Tsedric. Such as pharyngealized consonants, no voiced-voiceless distinction and vowel length distinction. However the Dagr language likely also featured a distinction between aspirated and unaspirated stops.
