Aiyoti (alt. Aioti) is the largest surviving East Serkr language, it is the national & most spoken language in Aiyota/Aiota. The language is agglutinative/fusional. "Official Aiyoti" is highly standardized and often differs a lot from regional dialects. It is one of the most spoken and economically important languages in universalis, especially in Himalia, Issagga and the Serkr, as well as being widely taught in Aeridanish schools.

Pronouns and Auxiliary verbs and Jazz

Holy shit you better damn prepare yourself because Aiyoti has billions of these.


Dialects

Although Aiyoti is a highly standardized and nationalized language, dialects still remain very prevalent with some being just barely reminiscent of Standard Aiyoti (eg. Kyintan Yang Aiyoti). Throughout the nation, Standard Aiyoti is taught together with Standard Aeridanish and occasionally Yoka Tsi.

Aeridanish Influence

Due to a long history of trade with the north, Aiyoti has a huge Aeridanish influence, with as much as 26% of its modern everyday vocabulary coming from Aeridanish. In Arioki schools at least basic conversational Aiyoti/Aeridanish is taught, being odd for one of these languages not to be taught.


Basic Vocabulary

There are no borrowings in this list and any pairs that look similar are purely coincidental (e.g. Sakin, which means "the metal" and Saki "iron")
