Khellakh (Låkhsprek)

Khellakh, or låkhsprek ("speech of the Lokh"), is one of the official languages of Trilok (alongside Common and Ramathian) and the most widely-spoken on the continent. Khellakh is a relatively new language, having only evolved in the 68th millennium after Trilok became a unified country; its ancestral languages are a combination of multiple Lockist languages from before that time.

Khellakh's most distinctive features, linguistically, are a wide variety of sounds for vowels (represented with varying accents in the transliterations on this wiki), and compound words. Because of the latter, literal translations of Khellakh can at times be inelegant. (e.g. The official name of the country, "Einvölkhenköyrnigir Drelåkh", literally translates to "One Peoples' Kingdom Trilok", but the official translation is "United Empire of Trilok".)

Takola (!kkosk)

The language of the Takula consists of not only words but hisses and clicks (depicted with an exclamation point '!') along with body language and tail movements. This makes it one of the hardest languages to learn and very hard to actually speak correctly.

Ykili (Ocele)

The Yki speak a sub-dialect of Ramathian, referred to as Ykili.
