About Nevotak Nevotak was a language of The 8th World( http://conworld.wikia.com/wiki/The_8th_world ), it was spoken by some ethnic groups of the two-horned long-longs of the Second Civilization of The 8th World and was served as the lingua franca of the Second Civilization.

Two-horned long-longs were divided into multiple ethnic groups(rather than true species) like human beings, so they have different cultures and different languages like human beings.

as the two-horned long-longs had become extinct long before human beings appeared in the 8th World, Nevotak is extinct now.

 Sakawi MKII has borrowed many words from Nevotak, and many Nevotak words entered  Lonmai Luna through  Sakawi MKII.

Linguistic introduction:

Nevotak is an isolating language with SVO as the basic word order; it has serial verb construction and a generally left-branching order; besides, words in Nevotak are often highly polysemous and the meanings can change according to context.
