Wereman or Wærmaisch is an Aranye Germanic language spoken mainly in the country of Weremark and the parts of Heimar. It is also spoken to a lesser extent in the Werman diaspora worldwide, notably the east Vandiniumites, and by ethnic Aurorans wherever Low Werman dialects are spoken.

Werman occupies a unique point in the field of Germanic linguistics, as the crossroads between East Germanic languages such as Gothic, and Ingvaeonic languages such as Low Saxon or Old English. This difference resulted from the Werman melting pot witnessed in early cultures, with the Ostwind and Aland lines being two notable linguistic borders.

It has been estimated that Werman has approximately 16 million native speakers throughout Cotf Aranye.
