Aloria is a diverse and vibrant place, and has hundreds of spoken and written languages. This page should guide you in all of the languages you may choose your character to speak. Please keep in mind that some races are better than others at learning and speaking some languages, and that some languages aren't even able to be learnt by individuals who did not grow up learning them.  
| Spoken by the Breizh.
:''Please keep in mind that for easy access to Roleplayers, the most frequently spoken—and easiest to learn—languages is Common, which is a 1:1 transfer of American English into Roleplay so that all Roleplayers can communicate with eachother.''
|-
:''Despite the fact that some Alorian languages are based heavily on IRL languages from Earth, it is always best (and preferred by everyone around you) that you type everything in English, and use a language tag (<ME> for Modern Elvish, etc.) to denote that your character is speaking a different language. Nobody likes retyping what you said in Google Translate just to know what you said.

|text = The New Regalian languages are those which have been created by the cultural—and linguistic—melting-pot known as the [[Regalian Archipelago]]. Since the archipelago is a center of commerce, anyone who is anyone in the world of business travels to and from, exposing themselves, their family, and their workers to the languages that occupy the island chain. In turn, they bring new words, phrases, and means of expression to the table, making the Regalian Archipelago the most linguistically diverse location in all of [[Aloria]].

|text = The Elven Empire left its mark on the world in numerous ways, among them the Elvish languages and their many derivatives. Never had there existed such a wide-spread language as Elvish. The language has only exploded in diversity since the Cataclysm, resulting in not only Nelfin-spoken languages like Modern Elvish, Drowdan Elvish, and Isldarin Elvish, but also the Human-spoken languages of Daendroquin, Daendroq-Catalan, and Etosian. While Common isn't specifically an Elvish derivative, it has completely adopted the Nelfin alphabet, acting as a true testament to the influence of the Elves.
