About Aldahnten
Aldahnten is an Orenahnian language spoken on the coasts of western Upper Boroso, primarily in the Kingdom of Urabor. Aldahnten is well documented for its palatalization of "odd phonemes" such as D and K, and it's tendency to be a difficult language for foreigners to learn; in part due to its complex and often times confusing verb conjugations. Primarily spoken by Kavs in the region, Aldahnten was relatively obscure until the recluse nation that it calls home opened its borders to outside influence, due to an ideological change and need for economic diversity. Though Aldahnten remains a semi-obscure language on Sahar today, some of its vocabulary and the whole of its script come from Esmilly, entirely because of the direct contact between Esmilly speakers and Orenahnian language speakers, through the trade across the Czucz sea from Urabor to Cananganam
