Isselmerian language
Isselmerian is a derivation of the Anglo-Frisian languages brought to the Lethian Islands in the sixth century AD, influenced by the resident Brythonic language they displaced, Anguistian, and the Norse language — Nielandic — that nearly displaced the West German tongues.
At present, the question remains as to whether Isselmerian is a dialect of English or a language unto itself. Unlike defenders of Scots (otherwise known as Lallans (Lowland Scots) or Ullans (Ulster Scots)), academics and laypeople promoting the difference of the local development of Anglic do not have the bulwark of nationalism to bolster their cause. They do, however, have the unwitting support of everyday Isselmere-Nielanders. Despite the decision of Parliament to adopt English, albeit Isselmere-Nielander in nature, as a national language, Isselmerian is the de facto everyday language of the Sovereign and his subjects.
