'''Aasti''' is the language of the peoples of [[Ka Aastaala]], often referred to as the Aasti tribes. It is a split-S language, and has 6 vowels: ''Aa'', ''a'', ''e'', ''i'', ''o'', and ''u''. ''E'', ''i'', ''o'', and ''u'' are used as their IPA equivalents, while ''aa'' (spelled a at the end of words) represents /a/ and ''a'' represents /æ/.
