Karduvic
Karduvic is a language spoken in the Supreme Union of Karduv and in the northeastern regions of Qonklaks. It is the Xth largest Kwang language on Abzu, spoken by over 200 million people. Having descended from Proto-Kwang rather than Middle Kwang, the language is highly divergent from Standard Kwang, and is completely unintelligible to other Kwang language speakers.
