Baklunish language can refer to either Ancient Baklunish or one of its Low Baklunish dialects, which are spoken by the Baklunish people.
Ancient Baklunish is one of the ancestors of the Overking's Common Tongue,[1][2][3][4] though there is little resemblance between the two in the contemporary era, a thousand years since the two diverged.[1] It is still spoken by the nomads of the Plains of the Ulakandar,[1][3][2] and by the faithful of Al'Akbar. It is the language of all official and religious documents west of the Yatil Mountains.[2]
Low Baklunish refers to the contemporary, colloquial Baklunish dialects, descended from Ancient Baklunish but much changed by time.
