Atla (Old Albic for 'world') is the framework in which most of Jörg Rhiemeier's conlangs exist. Atla is not so much a standalone conworld but rather a version of the real world with some extra languages added. The Elvenpath is a part of it. Atla became a stand-alone project after the League of Lost Languages, which the languages were part of, went defunct.
Languages of Atla
The languages of Atla are diachronic fictional languages. Most of them are connected with the Elves in some way. These are the Hesperic, Razaric and Krelian language families; more on these below. There are furthermore some "guest languages", languages (mostly Indo-European) that explore some ideas of the author and are placed in the same fictional framework although only marginally connected to the Elves.
Hesperic languages
Main article: Hesperic
The Hesperic languages are a language family which forms either an early divergent branch or a sister group of Indo-European (a matter of definition) which preserves some archaic traits. The Albic languages of the Elves are a branch of Hesperic; there are five other branches. As for April 2020, Proto-Hesperic, Proto-Albic and Old Albic are under construction.
Razaric languages
Main article: Razaric
The Razaric languages are a language family which appears to be distantly related to Basque. These are the languages of the Dwarves, descendants of the people of Neolithic Britain. The Albic languages contain a small number of Razaric loanwords, while the Razaric languages have extensively borrowed from Albic. As for April 2020, Proto-Razaric is under construction.
Krelian languages
Main article: Krelian
The Krelian languages are a language family which appears to be distantly related to Kartvelian. These are the languages of the descendants of the Pre-Indo-European people of Neolithic Central Europe, and influeced Proto-Hesperic. As for April 2020, only a few notes on Proto-Krelian exist.
"Guest languages"
These are some fictional languages which serve to explore ideas of the author which are not connected to the main conceit of Atla, but are compatible enough to be placed in the same framework. Currently, one "guest language", Camonic, is under construction; it is a Continental Celtic language.
