Languages/ogholm tilar fris

From Abnormalia

The Evrin, when they first formed the interspecies federation which was to become evrin ogholm cas hril cotal duhg, realised the importance of multiculturalism in such an extensive society. For this purporse, they did not form any single national language, but rather encouraged members to continue using their own languages. For this reason, the ogholm do not have any one main language, but rather use various languages for various purporses. However, for digital comunication, which due to the size they need to comunicate over forms much of their comunication, they translate mesages into a digital information storage code at one end and then from that code to the other language at the other. This has the advantage that each comunication terminal need only contain the information of two languages. The language used for this purporse is Ogholm tilar fris (the name is derived from the Evrin word for 'federal comunication code'). It is a binary format, and thus cannot be translated into writing. Tilar fris, or more specialised variants of it, is also used to store the thoughts of the A. I. robots used by the ogholm, and much of their digital data.
