Esbnitt

Esbnitt (natively εκς'βνϋτ Eks'bnūt, "this language") is a language spoken natively by about 50000 people on the remote archipelago of Es-sal-fisk (εκς'ςαλ'φιςψ Eks-sal-fiskh, "this group of lands") in the Atlantic Ocean. It is a highly-inflected agglutinative language.

Not many texts exist because this language had no native script and adopted the Greek alphabet. The only texts found were messages to other countries.
