It is the ancestor of every human language of [[Dalel]]. It is extinct.<br /> |Etymology=&#039;&#039;Bintzaila&#039;&#039; is the Bintzaila word for &quot;language&quot;.<br /> |History=Bintzaila was spoken on Haberria throughout the [[Age of Ascendance]]. In the [[Great Migration]] (0 – c. 60 ME), about 150,000 Yendea carried it in three armadas to [[Gosterra]], [[Hevaran]] and [[Hilisare]]. As the settlers and their descendants spread across Dalel, their speech drifted apart into the human languages spoken today, and Bintzaila itself ceased to be spoken.<br /> |Distribution=Bintzaila was spoken only on Haberria. It survives in the words it passed to its descendants and in old names such as &#039;&#039;Haberria&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;Méniail&#039;&#039;.<br /> |Phonology=Bintzaila had five vowels, &#039;&#039;a&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;e&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;i&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;o&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;u&#039;&#039;. Few words began with &#039;&#039;p&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;t&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;k&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;m&#039;&#039;; most began with &#039;&#039;b&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;d&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;g&#039;&#039; instead, as in &#039;&#039;bendialde&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;bizkar&#039;&#039;. No word began with &#039;&#039;r&#039;&#039;. Doubled consonants such as &#039;&#039;kk&#039;&#039; were common, as in &#039;&#039;nekkatso&#039;&#039;, and the sibilants included &#039;&#039;s&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;z&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;ts&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;tz&#039;&#039;.<br /> |Cultural Significance=Many names across Dalel can be traced to Bintzaila, among them [[Haberria]] (&quot;homeland&quot;), [[Yendea]] (&quot;people&quot;) and [[Méniail]] (from &#039;&#039;bendialde&#039;&#039;, &quot;mountain land&quot;).<br /> |See Also=* [[Yendea]]<br /> * [[Haberria]]<br /> * [[Great Migration]]<br /> }}</div>
