Dethric is a Hesperidian language, widely spoken in modern times as a lingua franca across the western Ilethes (the continents of Dethria, Canthres, Arophania and northern and western Marcasia).

Name and genealogy

Due to nationalist and other parametric concerns, there are disputes in the scholarly circles regarding the proper naming of the language known in English as Dethric. Although Dethric is a Hesperidian language, it branched off from the original family considerably early and had developed sufficiently on its own to have become mutually unintelligible with other dalects originally spoken on Dethria by the time of the expansion into Canthres, of which pioneers the "dialect" was the dominant tongue. It is, however, traditionally considered to be the successor to the earliest attested (written) language on the continent of Dethria, largely for historical reasons (see below).

Dethric is properly a member of the South Hesperidian language sub-family. (...)
