Jórvisk was a language belonging to the Saxo-Syzkynic Languages, also known as the Germanic languages, specifically on the branch dubbed by linguists the "Newyorvish" branch. Exact origin is unknown but it is heavily theorised to be a direct descendant of the Old Norse language of which it was co-official with Jórvisk itself and English in New Jorvik. Like most Germanic languages, Jorvisk's vowel inventory was heavy with vowels, though it had bizarre features separating it from English, such as the presence of the [r] phoneme as opposed to the [ɹ] found in English. While documentation is sparse due to the recent discovery of this language, linguists in and around New Jorvik are working their best to produce documentation.
