Draconic

From Ephimoria Wiki

Origin

Draconic has been thought to be a language of the Dragons from long ago- however, is most verbally spoken by their Draxgar relatives. Before, in fact, decades ago was this terminology passed down to the Draxgar by the legendary, sentient Dragons. An enormous gift that could be given down to a similar race. At first, they used this to communicate with their predecessors, although turned into a main language for the best people to mingle with each other.

Draconic was largely introduced both verbally and especially in written form. It was particularly essential for the Draxgar to translate the language onto surfaces, wanting to preserve it for the ages. It was seen as being in its pure form when not spoken but instead displayed on paper or other materials where it could be transferred. In its earlier time, it was specially composed of a few Dragons who had the ability to read, although now it is unfortunately difficult for this dialect to be registered by the feral winged beasts.

Description

While Draconic is spoken in a bit of a gruff tone, the language has been thought to be very mysterious yet beautiful when spoken. Because of its relatively similar tonality to human languages, Draxgar can deliver this in an exceptional amount of different vocals. Notably, however, while speaking in sentences, there are pauses between every couple of words. It is not elongated, but the manner in which it is spoken seems like the end letter is said in haste to enunciate a harsh pause. It is usually challenging for a non-native speaker to perfect this subtle speech pattern.

When watching Draxgar write Draconic, is seen that their writing is loosely written, almost aimlessly. Considered sensible lettering in its own exclusive alphabet, the style of the script includes many dashes and lines, along with dots depending on the sign. Conveniently by using their claw-like nails, a Draxgar still commonly writes by etching Draconic into material if a utensil is unavailable.
