Atregonese (Atregonaren: at.u8c9bee.gon.a.u8c9been) is a language that belongs to the Tragonic language family. It is the national language of Atregona and is primarily spoken there. The Atregonese language, along with other languages in the Tragonic family, is considered a language isolate. This means it is not known to have any genetic relationship with other language families.
History and Classification
The Tragonic languages, including Atregonese, are based on the Basque language and the Vasconic languages, but they feature a unique alphabet and distinct changes in pronunciation, grammar, and lexicon. Due to its isolated nature, Atregonese and the Tragonic language family stand apart from the more widespread Kachal-Anarian languages spoken in neighboring regions.
Geographic Distribution
While Atregonese is predominantly spoken in Atregona, there is a small minority of speakers in Istaña, making up about 1% of the population, mostly in the southern provinces of Sudecost and Paldero. The central highlands of Istaña are home to the Taldeskal people, who speak a Tragonic language similar to Atregonese, though they do not use the Tragonic alphabet.
Alphabet and Numerals
Atregonese is written using a unique Tragonic alphabet, consisting of 28 letters. The alphabet is designed specifically for Atregonese and differs significantly from the Latin alphabet. The following table provides the Atregonese letters along with their phonetic values:
