'''Redentran Musescorian''' (Redentroða) is a {{wp|mixed language}} with a grammar similar to that of [[Mityazyanda]] and a vocabulary similar to that of [[Musescorian]]. It is spoken in much of {{nation|Redentro}}, where it formed through a {{wp|relexification}} of Mityazyanda.

==History==
 +
The language, initially considered a {{wp|dialect}} of Musescorian, formed in the former [[Nation of Mityazyanda Peoples]] on the southern section of [[Blue Island]] in the present-day Redentran district of [[Thermapole and Mityazyanda]]. Use of Redentran Musescorian spread throughout Blue Island, and in 1708 it was declared the official dialect of [[The Realm of Thermapole]]. Because of Thermapole's persistent role as a mediator in disputes between the [[Redentran City-States]], the dialect quickly spread through the city-states of [[The City-State of Redentro|Redentro]], [[The City-State of Penzer|Penzer]], and [[The City-State of Wirthal|Wirthal]]. By 1874, the dialect was official in all three nations.

Redentran Musescorian (Redentroða) is a mixed language with a grammar similar to that of Mityazyanda and a vocabulary similar to that of Musescorian. It is spoken in much of Redentro, where it formed through a relexification of Mityazyanda.

History

The language, initially considered a dialect of Musescorian, formed in the former Nation of Mityazyanda Peoples on the southern section of Blue Island in the present-day Redentran district of Thermapole and Mityazyanda. Use of Redentran Musescorian spread throughout Blue Island, and in 1708 it was declared the official dialect of The Realm of Thermapole. Because of Thermapole's persistent role as a mediator in disputes between the Redentran City-States, the dialect quickly spread through the city-states of Redentro, Penzer, and Wirthal. By 1874, the dialect was official in all three nations.

The grammar of Redentran Musescorian is very similar to that of colloquial Mityazyanda, with several of Mityazyanda's quirks, including the lack of any articles. One of Mityazyanda's quirks is notably missing from Redentran Musescorian; the language does not use Mityazyanda's case system, instead using a prefix (ke-) to denote possession and relation, and a separate word (luy) to denote conjunction. Redentran Musescorian does not use formal Mityazyanda's sentence structure system, instead using the simplified system of word placement used by colloquial Mityazyanda. The language distinguishes five major word classes: verbs, nouns, adjuncts (adverbs and adjectives), conjunctions, and pronouns. These five word classes are exemplified in the following sentence:
