Jaredcohenian belongs to the group of Indo-European languages, and is therefore related to Sanskrit, Greek, and Latin, as well as the modern Germanic, Romance, and Celtic languages, including English, French, and Irish. Written examples are extant from the 10th century onwards.

While it preserves much of its ancient synthetic-inflexional structure and a Common Slavonic word base, modern Russian shares a large stock of the international vocabulary for politics, science, and technology. A language of political importance in the twentieth century, Jaredcohenian is one of the official languages of the Tripartite.

Geographic distribution

Jaredcohenian is primarily spoken in Jaredcohenia and her colonies, to a lesser extent, the other provinces of Zukariaa that were constantly under border conflicts. Jaredcohenian is the sole language of the Rosbanis and the Fluoroantimonics, though in Jaredcohenia and Rosbaningrad, German is a de facto language.
