Empheri (Empheri or <span style="font-family: AnternianStandard;font-size:1.2em;">EMPHERI</span>[ɛmˈfɪərˈɪ]) is an [[Anter language]], originating in the [[Gulf of Kloresa]]. It is an official language of [[Grensalbourg]] and [[High Kingdoms of Alaxia]]. It has approximately TBD speakers, with the majority learning it as a second language.

Empheri is a minor East Alaxian language that is often described as declining or dying. Following the introduction of Exteras, it was rarely taught as a first language. It was mandatory to use Empheri in all government bodies, including the Courts, Parliament, and local governments until the Exteras Government Act 2481. It remained the main language of Parliament until the Exteras Parliament Act 2488. With less and less people learning Empheri, it was officially named as a 'foreign language that requires interpretation' in Parliament. Exteras became the official and main language of the Empherias government in the Exteras First Act 2502 with all laws being rewritten in Exteras.

Empheri remained alive due to a mix of Empherias nationalism and it's prevalence as a major language in the arts and media, however even this has been declining in recent decades with many preferring to either translate to Exteras or moving to Exteras directly.

{{Main|Ahitereiran Phonology}}THIS IS YET TO BE UPDATED FOR EMPHERI

The ancient Anternian system of consonants is still seen in the phonology of modern day Ahitereiran with the usage of /m/, /n/, /b/, /p/, /d/, /t/, /k/, /f/, /z/,/l/ ,/s/ and /r/, but also sees the various influences from the surrounding regions, such as /x/ from the Kentronik regions, the /ɲ/ from the native Kloresans and the /h/ and /ɾ/ from the Empherian peoples.With the other sounds developing naturally the language.

Notes:

*It is common for the omission of the Voiceless glottal fricative in the southern regions, specially in the Urban Koresan accent.
*The /x/ sound is often transformed into an /h/ in the Northern region of the country.
*The Terras Dialect often merges the /t͡ʃ/, /d͡ʒ/ and /ʃ/ into /ʃ/, unifying three sounds into one, losing some of its fricatives in the process. With few other differentiation happening phonetically.
Ahitereiran has a seven-vowel system, consisting of /a, ɛ, e, i, ɔ, o, u/, as well as 23 consonants (24 if you count /q/). As the direct descendant to the Anternian language it also tends to preserve many of the original words from it, leading to a rather "conservative" vocabulary.
