About Old Tīzocin
The Old Tizocin language is one of the numerous daughters of Proto West Vaniuan that make up the Western Vaniuan sprachbund. Separated from the remainder of the Vaniuan tongues by the large mountain range that makes up the border between traditional Vaniu and the foothills beyond, it remains markedly distinct from many other Vaniuan languages.
