About Cirtunese
Cirtunese is a personal philosophical language.
In the world of Mizen, it was created by Koraihen, the Eternal Leader, and it is used as the Lingua Franca by the
Cirton Union.
The language is highly logical, and makes use of feature that no natural language in Mizen could possibly have. One example of such features is the fact that every letter in the Cirtunese alphasyllabary is a morpheme.
Cirtunese is also mostly focused on describing ideas and concepts, rather than physical objects.
