About Proto-Dzekretic
A sort-of-functional sketchlang just to serve as a starting point to make other more developed conlangs. An exceedingly ancient tongue, considered the "first" language (even though isn't, it's more of just the language from which most languages descended from), Proto-Dzekretic was the most popular language spoken by the inhabitants and ancestors of all of humanity who lived in the Dzekreteos mountains before migrating across the rest of the world.
