[TR] The common tongue can be thought of as a trade language, simple and with a vocabulary of about 1,500 words; developed by merchants to do business with foreigners. It can only convey simple communication when a common language is not shared. These trade speech languages are likely to be understood by many of the enchanted races and intelligent monsters as well as contacted tribal peoples.
