About Ghoulish The language of ghouls from my conworld with SVO word order, 7 noun cases, Indo-Iranian and Kartvelian vocabulary. Has three dialects: Tsagat, Khavir, and, the most spoken of them, Daksheen, spoken at the south, in Čeoaeaiea, even though humans had attempted a holocaust, which, however, still resulted in some ghouls fleeing into the north and forming the other two dialects. Daksheen dialect is also known for its /ħ/ and /x/, and it's the closest dialect to Sanskrit and Georgian

Language family relationships
[edit] [view] Khavir (Khavir Ghoulish)The most incomprehensible dialect. Spoken in the desert at the south of Ŕepčilźemě and has a very different phonology, which is a lot like the phonology of Bengali, including loss of many phonemes and spammming sibilants
[edit] [view] Tsagat (Tsagat)The most archaic dialect, spoken on the north of Trollia and Kejukajnia. Preserved the /w/ sound and the x pronounced as /χ/. Closer to Mingrelian, Lithuanian and the Digor Ossetian dialect
