Tegír múdın

Tegír múdın, or traders tongue, is a language spoken in an alternate history of earth. The language is isolate, and is spoken by a group of traders that mostly trade around the silk road. The language has multiple dialects, mostly bound to a part of the route. The biggest difference between the dialects is the pronounciation of the language, and the script that is used. However, a standard form, with a script made by the traders themselves, is in use as an auxiliary dialect so the traders remain able to communicate with groups of other parts of the route.
