Fahlkish Language

Fahlkish (Falk) is a West Germanic language that is spoken by about 9,000,000 people as a first language - including all of Fahlkland, 75% of Maartenik - and around 3,000,000 people as a second or third language. It is the smallest of the Western Germanic languages.

Outside of Fahlkland, Fahlkish is the first language spoken by almost everyone on Maartenik, along with Sijnt Vinsent where it holds official status, both constituent countries of the Kingdom of Fahlkland. Historical minorities on the verge of extinction remain in parts of Indonesia, Vietnam, and China. While over half of a million are native speakers living in several countries outside of Europe including the United States and Australia.

Fahlkish is seen as the link between Western and Northern Germanic languages because of its' past influences with Germany and Denmark. However it has almost abandoned the gendered nouns system by using the neuter "Den" word. Much like English and Dutch however it does have a similar sentence structure along with little to no influences from Romance languages.
