About Frithoese
*Undergoing phonological and morphological reconstruction.
Frithoese is a constructed West Germanic language that shares several innovations with the dialects of the North Sea, however it is only distantly related to them, having developed in relative isolation beginning in the mid-to-late fifth century. A subgrouping under the Ingvaeonic branch of West Germanic is tempting, since Ingvaeonic itself is only a grouping of closely related dialects (Old English, Old Frisian, and Old Saxon), rather than any proto-language.
