About Bahasa Moji
Bahasa Moji is a Malay-based creole spoken in Siveri, the southernmost state of Morlago. It began as a trade pidgin used by the local Morran population to communicate with Malay traders and seafarers. Over time, some of the Malay traders settled in southern Siveri and intermingled with the Morrans, resulting in this Malay-based creole with Morran influences in vocabulary and grammar.
The language is written with the Moji script, a modified version of the Arabic script. It is an official language of the Moji Autonomous District in Siveri and mostly spoken by the Moji people, the offspring of Malay and Morran ancestors. The name Moji is derived from the old Morran word /moz/, meaning south, as the Malay traders came from the south. This word was then adopted by the Moji people as their name.
