Bostruca Sina

WIP PLACEHOLDER   The "Second-Language Speak," or "Second Spoken Language," was created by Kitasun while basing it off the First Spoken Language that was originally created back in his own realm. The First Spoken Language lacked many terms for things that did not exist in their world, such as water, thought, money, and numerous terms for emotions. The Second Spoken Language is a more revised version of the First, including many words Humans are familiar with, translated for Demons.   This language is written in a variety of ways, although Kitasun tried his best to promote writing from top to bottom, left to right. Unfortunately, not all Demons could grasp this seemingly useless idea, so it can be seen written going in many directions, sometimes even written on top of previous sentences.   These languages, while obsolete, serve as a reminder of Kitasun's successes back in his realm along with providing a method for unifying his kind. Many Demons are proud to learn and use this language, or any of the other Demon languages.   This is generally shortened to simply "Bostruca."

Writing System

The alphabet for the Bostruca Sina is made up of multiple Human languages from small towns, and bits and pieces from Ishallan Word. Here it has been divided into three main sections. Note: Many of these examples will be using letters and words from our present-day cultures to describe and compare to for easier understanding.

The Basic Symbols

This first part consists of the many basic symbols that are used in a majority of words, and these are the only letters that are used to start sentences and have their own first or capitalized form.

Secondary Symbols

The second part here consists of alternate symbols that are slightly based off the letters in the first part, however these are modified or have a different sound accompanying them so they become their own letters. These letters never start sentences and thus have no capitalized form.

Yes and No

These are the special symbols meaning "yes" and "no" on their own, but when they are added to the endings of words they can portray the emotions of the speaker. They are often times used in positive and negative instances, such as in a show of respect or mocking. These are a combination of two letters, but written as one. While these are standalone letters/ words, they do not have any capitalized form just like the Secondary Symbols.

Geographical Distribution

This language is spoken mainly in the Demon Forest. It is widespread among the Demons who inhabit it, but is rarely spoken in any Human towns unless the population is a strong mix of both Demons and Humans. Most towns however do contain books on the language in order to educate Humans on it.
