About Turcilat
Turçilat is a romlang i'm makin'
Based on the event of romance spreading farther than Dacia (Now modern-day Romania) and ending up in Northwestern Turkey.
Istanbul has the largest Turçilat speaking population, having around 400,000 speakers, while the rest are spread through surrounding provinces of northwestern Turkey, and parts of the lower Balkans. (Mostly Greece.)
Name comes from Turci + Latin (Turk's Latin)
Turkish influence affects many parts of the language, including the removal of grammatical gender and conservation of SOV word order. (Not that modern romance languages don't exhibit some SOV behavior, they just don't have it as the default structure).
Lexicon mainly comes from latin, but has large Turkish influence (duh) as well as some balkan languages (Greek, Albanian, etc.)
Turçilat is written with an extended Latin alphabet in Turkey, but is written with the Greek script in Greece.
