Qildari language

The Cildanian Language is a Semitic Language closely related to Hebrew and more distantly to Majatran. It has a long history, stretching back to the Ancient Qedarites in Cildania, and it is the most widely spoken language in Cildania.

Church Cildanian
Since Christianity was introduced in Cildania in the Middle Ages, the liturgic language of the Department of Cildania (ER) has remained Middle Cildanian, also known as Church Cildanian. It was the language of culture in Medieval times, and although it is not currently spoken, it is widely understood due to its role as a vehicle of Eastern Rite Catholicism.

Writing System
Currently the Cildanian Language is written using the Hebrew Alphabet, but in the past it was written in the Qedarite alphabet. The latter was a non-pictographic consonantal alphabet, or abjad. It has been classified as an abjad because it records only consonantal sounds, with the addition of matres lectionis for some vowels. In the middle ages, a cursive version of the alphabet developed, currently used for writing the liturgic language of Middle Cildanian (or Church Cildanian).
