Language family relationships
[edit] [view] Elueñan (Elueñan )The status of Elueñan is extremely contentious. It is for the most part intelligible, but quite difficult for some speakers to understand, especially those who do not grow up near Eluker individuals. Speakers generally regard this as a language rather than a dialect, but legally it is only a variation of Jeor.
[edit] [view] Debeorran (Hill Speak)This is the dialect of Jeor spoken on and around the mountain range known as The Ridge. It is heavily influenced by Ólvⱳa, and therefore has sounds and words not otherwise found in Jeor. It is the dialect that eventually leads to the modern Creole found in the Ridge.
[edit] [view] Dhueluen (Southern Jeor)Dhueluen is a dialect of Jeor spoken in Southern Naothon as well as in surrounding southern countries. Many speakers are bilingual with surrounding Elven languages, which influences Dhueluen, especially in regards to pronunciation and casual vocabulary. Some argue that Dhueluen is a collection of many hyper regional dialects.
