About Abini
Abini is a Corrolian language spoken on the Abinal Islands off the south-western coast of Corrolia by about 12,000 people. The language was first discovered in 1655 by Corrolian explorers, but is believed to be much, much older. Although Corrolian and Abini are mutually unintelligible, the language is thought to have derived from proto-Corrolian when ancient sea-farers settled on the island.
