Structure

The magic language is based on the dwarven letters (26 signs) and written similiar to Modern Legonian. But because ther're many words for same or similiar expressions in different situations or sentence meanings, it's not that easy to learn. The Magic Language is also tight related to Castallanian in the eastern continent.

(The Magic Language should keep the classic cliches of fantasy spellcast-tongue, so like in most modern fantasyworlds, the sorcerors and scholars of Legonia have an own language wich is mainly inspired by latin languages. Words and expressions can be taken directly from a dictionary or invented new. The Magic Language should sound old and intelligent.)
