In your Realms what do their elves call their language? Espruar has always been referred to as the name of the Moon Elvish alphabet, what would the common elvish language be called?— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) November 20, 2021
Assuming there would be regional as well as Sun / Green elf dialects. Thanks!
I’m also interested in the native terms for the Gnomish and Dwarven languages in Gnomish & Dwarven.
Lastly – what is the Gnomish term for their people in your……home Realms? Tel'Quessir, Hin, Ahrraem, ________???
Thanks again for years of entertainment!

1)
Elves call their own spoken language Lalur (“The Singing”). They refer collectively to other languages as Glahkery (“sound-strife”).
Dwarves call their own spoken language Arltah (”Dwarf-converse”). 2)
Gnomes call themselves Doamun (translated as both “Enduring-Folk” and “Steadfast-Us”), and their spoken language (referred to in Common as “Gnometalk,” BTW) as “Munthar” (“us-clack” or “our-speech”).#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) November 20, 2021
