Carrish

Currently a work in progress.

Classification and Dialects
Carrish is a language spoken in Carriland by 11.4 million native speakers, or 77% of its inhabitants and by roughly 16 million native speakers worldwide. Carriland is an island to the east of England in the North Sea.

The language was introduced to the island in the late 11th century by Norman invaders, which was previously inhabited by speakers of Old Norse. As the Old Norman dialects gained dominance, they gradually merged and were influenced by the Old Norse substratum, which gave rise to the development of Old Carrish, just as the ethnic French settlers and indigenous ethnic Norse intermingled to give rise the new Carrish people and ethnicity. Carrish continued to develop in isolation from the other Norman and Oïl languages with continuing Norse and Dutch influence, as Anglo-Norman died out in England and the other Norman languages developed in and near France with growing influence from Parisian French.

Its family tree can be traced as Indo-European, Italic, Romance, Western, Gallo-Romance, Oïl, Norman, Carrish.
