 * Karmir - A melting pot of activity. Why so many people want to live here when it is mostly desert is beyond me. The early natives here were the Humans and Ifrit. So maybe Jannti or a variation of it would be prominent.
 * Grunik - Here we have Humans, Gnolls, and Dwarves. Again here I think that having a common regional language would be less fun. Picture a Gnoll, decked out in fine robes acting as a translator to a human king.

		+	I'm going to put this here. This is my recommendation for regional and racial languages in the world.
		+
		+	Regional Dialects:
		+	* Common - I think we should remove it. Having real language barriers is fun.
		+	* Adafaer - I don't see this area having a regional language. The Tower Elves and Gnomes (the major populations here) each do their own thing in their own areas.
		+	* Skyros - Sylvan.
		+	* Gedik - Here we have the Kobolds, Humans, and Shard living in close-ish proximity to each other. I think racial languages will be the norm here, With the humans speaking some form of Meridian.
		+	* Karmir - A melting pot of activity. Why so many people want to live here when it is mostly desert is beyond me. The early natives here were the Humans and Ifrit. So maybe Jannti or a variation of it would be prominent.
		+	* Grunik - Here we have Humans, Gnolls, and Dwarves. Again here I think that having a common regional language would be less fun. Picture a Gnoll, decked out in fine robes acting as a translator to a human king.
		+	* (Eastern Grunik) - Mostly Orcs and Shokan which each have their own racial languages (orc and giant).
		+	* Meridia - This is, I think, where the most widespread human languages would come from.
		+
		+	Racial Dialects:
		+	* Elven - There are two distinct Elvish languages. The Tower Elves speak Seldruin and the Timber Elves speak Espruar (or whatever we decide to call them).
		+	* Human - For humans the 3 groups are Karmir, Grunik, and Meridia-Gedik, each with their own language. Maybe even 2-3 languages in Meridia since we have independent City-States here.
		+	* Dwarven - Do we want there to be multiple Dwarven languages? Matt had the most impact on the spread of this race, what do you say?
		+	* Gnomes - We have the Gnomes in Adafaer and the Gnomes of Gedik, which have been separate for hundreds of years. I'd like them to have similar but ultimately different languages (ie Portuguese and Spanish).
		+	* Nerid - They are pretty far spread so I imagine that they have some variance in their language. Also, they might even have one language for underwater communication and another for above.
		+
		+	Other:
		+	* Sylph and Ifrit - I think these two share a language: Jannti. This is the language used by Djinn and Efreet, the progenitors of the Sylph and Ifrit.
		+
		+	Other than that, I think most other races are small enough or stayed close enough together for a long enough time to have a single racial language like Draconic, Orc, and Gnoll. --[[User:Wintermute27\|Wintermute27]] ([[User talk:Wintermute27\|talk]]) 13:09, 24 November 2014 (PST)
