As in my NS nation? German, for long complicated backstory reasons no-one cares about (FT), or for short simple backstory reasons the no-one cares about (PT/(P)MT)

French, English and Wymgani (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Wymgani_%28language%29).
Amarenthe
03-01-2007, 14:01
Amarenthian English, Irish Gaelic, and Pacitalian. (Only the first is official. The latter should be official, actually, since it's the "official" language of one province. The last is become more commonly spoken, or at least grasped, in urban areas and those closest to the border.)

English, but many people enjoy a bit of Russian, Italian, Latin, Japanese and Gibberish on the side.

cameroi speaks lananaran (a planetary language created thousands of years ago by the nalanuthuan and nalanothoan priesthoods, one of the several small numbers of things they ever fully aggreed upon) and the regeonal language(s) of the regeon we're in.

Kryozerkia
03-01-2007, 15:48
English, Latin and Kerim (which sounds like a cross between English and Gaelic...)
Mogtaria
03-01-2007, 15:52
Well, the national language of my nation is Dundugesian.
:eek:

The language of Mogtaria is Marain although I almost went for Parcel Tongue
Rasselas

Stalinism.

lol :P
Krensonia

Krensonian, which is in sound a mix between latin and asian (japanese) and itself completely unique. And British English, which is also an official language.

Ice Hockey Players
03-01-2007, 16:23
Gretzkian, which is the exact same as English with a few minor exceptions. What English speakers call a "watch" we call a "ticker." It's kind of like the difference between American English and British English.

It's a far cry better than the horrendous language we used to speak that had eight alphabets and over 5,000 unique single-word characters. Basically, our people visited Japan and said, "That language is far too easy."

We also have a few native Japanese speakers as well as two provinces that speak fluent Gibberish.

"That car wreck only caused 11 tragedies, up until the gas vein exploded and the nuclear waste leaked out. Now we've got two whole statistics and I'm not sure how that's gonna clean up."

We'll just spin something about how they died for the Motherland.

Well, what did you think it'd be? ;)
Pacitalia

Infinite Revolution

no official national language. mongolian and english are the major languages, followed by french, tamil, some kind of creole, and bantu. or something. this is the first time i thought about it.
Siap
08-01-2007, 04:53
English and Siapian are the official languages.

Irish Gaelic, Polish, Czech, Romanian, Austrian, and Italian are not uncommon.
Vetalia
08-01-2007, 04:53
Vetalian, of course. It sounds like a cross between German and Russian with a Cyrillic alphabet.
Cannot think of a name

English, German, French, Latin, Spanish Maori and Harlesburger all had a good chance of being in there.

Harlesburger is something i created mostly from spelling mistakes from when i was in primary school, and later looked over but it has been classed up a bit.

English and Italian.
Posi
08-01-2007, 08:24
English with a Cyrillic alphabet and some Russian influence. When spoken, an American or Brit would still understand it, but it would sound as silly as the English spoken across the pond.

Kyronea

Well, the national language of my nation is Dundugesian.
:eek:

No language is officially recognized by the Kyronean government out of respect for our nigh 2 billion peoples, but the major languages are Kyronean English, Kyronen Spanish, Manderin, Japanese, and Romanian. A vast number of other languages are spoken also.
Rejistania
08-01-2007, 08:53
The United States doesn't.

True, but the U.S. doesn't legally recognize a language to be the official language. There is a difference. Frankly, I prefer it that way, because that prevent favoritism. Hence why my fictional nation does the same with its languages.
Risottia
08-01-2007, 09:20
Official language: Risottes (a sub-dialect of Milanese).
Commonly used: any kind of Milanese.
Most frequently spoken foreign languages: Italian, German, French, Russian and English.

Glerica
09-01-2007, 18:48
Its Glerican, which through an amazing coinsidence is almost exactly the same as English, except that there is no letter "X" as it is a useless letter.

X-Rays are called "Super-rays-that-see-through-bodies-except-bones-and-lead" or "SREBAL" for short. Xylophones is spelt like Zylophone.

Saluton,
Hello,

English is spoken internally, Esperanto is used in international relations.

Our media has sub-titles in the language not being spoken, newspapers have English on one half of the page, Esperanto on the other.

Both are taught in school so people are bilingual early on.

However, a creole is being used more and more often, using words and phrases from both languages, combined.

Gxis Revido,
