Zumarian

The Zumarian language (Zumurtá) is a small language that is now only spoken by about 5,000 people, well know for the length of its words. The language originated around the year 150 in a small territory near modern-day Debrecen, Hungary. Nowadays, there are two main dialects, called Divuthi (Yebethi) and Faldún (Baldúnæ), but Divuthi is the dialect you will almost always hear and is also called Standard Zumarian. Languages including Hungarian, Finnish, Norwegian, and Danish all have many words that came from the language Zumarian.

In about the year 1887, it was believed that Zumarian had been lost, but by March of 1893 there were already about 760 known speakers. The numbers increased until it dropped and stayed in the low 600's. Since then, Zumarian has become a language people are learning while already knowing a more common language.
