About Riograndese  Riograndese (natively known as riograndian or lhenga d'óc de Rio Gran or simply lhenga d'óc) is a Gallo-Romance language spoken in the Kingdom of Arlian, especially in the Rio Gran metropolitan area, alongside Fala d'Arlian (which is a Galician-Portuguese language instead). It's a variety of Occitan mutually intelligible with the majority of its dialects and, to some degree, to Catalan. Besides being spoken in the Kingdom of Arlian, it also holds the status of regional language in the Khronos Kingdom and is official in the Kingdom of Bluur.

Sound shifts from Occitano-Romance to Riograndese:
