The '''Ohanian''' language is a language spoken by the descendants of the Ohanian Kingdoms of the Medieval Period of Vaniuan history. It is considered one of the more phonetically complicated languages of Vaniua with having a velar-pharyngeal, ejective, plain consonant distinction; while only having four vowels.

This page should be an IN-UNIVERSE description of the language. It is also NOT the primary documentation site of your language. This is not your descriptive grammar, this is a wikipedia style page for (for the most part) non-linguists, which means I don't want pages of paradigm tables or hour long write ups of the intricacies of relativisation on demoted inverted objects in locational clauses.
 
Start writing your page here, with a general introduction and basic facts about the language (when and where its spoken, by who and how many, a brief history)

For morphology consider how the words in your language look, how do you derive words from others, do you have cases, are verbs inflected, do nouns differ from adjectives, do adjectives differ from verbs? Etc. -->

Derivational morphology
For syntax consider things like word order and construction of clauses.
