Meduu-Galaach, or Galaach is an Ushran trade language widely spoken throughout the Shallows, Zeda and Ushra subsectors.

Description[edit]

Galaach is considered a sub-language of Anglic.

Historical Linguistics[edit]

Galaach is an artificial language created by Ushran traders during the Long Night to aid interracial communication. Galaach is descended from a number of Terran tongues but has evolved a complex grammar and a wide range of tonal expressions, and today contains an unusually large number of new, Lancian, Ziadd, and Vilani words. Galaach is considered by most native Ushrans to be an 'inferior' language and only fit to be used to speak to off-worlders.
