Uruque (language)

Uruque as a language is very much a variant of High Vexan, may it be a very weirdly modified version tho, with Uruque spelling being by far the most a-logical spelling out there to most people outside of the Uruk tribes.

It consists of a mostly identical vocabulary and a similar grammar then High Vexan, with the only big difference being the orginasation of words in a sentice (the verb always goes last, no exeptions).

It is when the spelling kicks in when it becomes weird. Having taken inspiration from the Urungi, the Uruque searched for an own laguage to speak to seek more recognition as a independant people. It resulted in most words in the Uruque language purposly being weirdly spelled. They use diffrent letters for different sounds, and have special rules for deviding words into pieces.

Examples:

Abroad in the hills. = Àb-roth en tau i'ls.

Forfathers fist. = Vist Fuor Vaterç.

I don't know where grandmother's blanket is. Toant no o'er oag-mu'ter iç ai. =

This high tower will fall one day. = C'al fal oan dae tiç tau'ar o'ay.

We will kick him out. = C'al bût aud hrim wai.

Over the sea, into the void. = O'er the çy, entau tau nofin.

I was born on twelve Bodran in Old Melistern. = Oas b'urn on tuelf Bo'Tran in Aolt Eliç'Tern ai.

Did you see that owlbear hiding there? = Dit tu çii hytin ter tat aubyr.

Hello my name is Obran, what is yours? = Grút min ném iç Obran, oat iç oarç?

When does the hunting season start? = Oa'en doaç çtuart tau çyçon-uant'in?

In three years from now the chief will be rechosen. = Ian try y'ars vrom nau ry-coçen c'al by tau tcyf.

I speak a little Uruque. = Çpyk â iat'e Uar'Uak ai.
