Omiur is a dialect continuum conlang; spoken in and around Omiur City. Despite the relatively small area of use, the language is highly dialectal; with many dialects not quite being mutually intelligble to each other. In addition, there a handful of argots and cryptolects spoken between dialects. All of the Omiur languages are from a single proto-language that diverged over time due to shifts in geography and influence from other cultures.

The city itself is built on canals across various parts of the Omiur bay, with additional communities being built in shores nearby. Many residents are bi-dialectal.

Most of the sections below describe Proto-Omiur, with dialectal variations being mentioned as needed.
