Introduction:
'''Tuzquês''' is the language of the [[Tuzquão]] and the main language of the [[League of Balúrail]].
Etymology:
''Tuzquês'' is derived from ''Tuzquão'', the name of the people who speak it.
History:
The first settlers of [[Balúrail]] sailed down the coast from the [[Kingdom of Bóinbile]] in [[Gosterra]] and founded [[Saindo]] in 201 ME. They spoke the language of the Kingdom, [[Gostaldi (Language)|Gostaldi]]. Over the following centuries their speech developed into Tuzquês, which spread across the [[Western Lowlands]] as the League grew.
Distribution:
Tuzquês is spoken throughout the League of Balúrail. Most place names in Balúrail are Tuzquês, such as [[Arrêr]] ("fish town"), [[Urdim]] ("blue") and [[Lake Arrerem]] ("rose").
Dialects:
Phonology:
Tuzquês has no ''k'' or ''h''; the sound ''k'' is written ''c'' or ''qu'', as in ''Tuzquês'' itself. Words end in a vowel or in ''l'', ''r'', ''s'', ''z'' or ''m''. The circumflex and the tilde mark vowel qualities, as in ''Têr'', ''Ivaiê'' and ''Tuzquão'', and an acute accent marks stress, as in ''Balúrail'' and ''Arremíria''. ''Ch'' appears only at the start of a word.
