Since this has been on the wiki for awhile and hasn't been improved or moved by anyone I've decided to start
a language page out of this material. This is of course not team approved material yet and is very much a work in progress I figure the best use of this material given that its been around awhile is to lend it to the most played of the fey races on avlis, the O'man nymph.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Orleron wrote:
O'Ma and Titania have different versions of sylvan, with O'Ma's version being derived from the same spirit language as elven, and thus related about as closely as Sanskrit and German, which are both Indo-European languages.
 
Each race within both fairy races has its own dialect of sylvan, which is regarded as a separate language, and is about as close as Italian and Spanish.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The road map as I see it then for O'ma fey follows:
Avlissian Spirit Language------
  |---Avlissian Sylvan(known by all sentient woodland beings )
        |---Sylvan dialects follow
        |---Nymph
        |---Sylph
        |---Dryad
        |---Nixie
        |---Centaur (near indistinguishable from Sylvan)
      |---Fairy Common (spoken by both Titanian & O'ma fey)
      |--Nanshilae---Nanshilae derivatives
 
I've based much of what I've done here on the page on Nanshilae because that is probably appropriate.  I've kind of de-hebrewed the nanshi here and added more suffixed vowels like -ay or -i to make it more sing-song on the assumption that the hebraic influence on nanshi is essentially the spirit language since the influence from Titania will probably be cobbled together from other works of fiction regarding Titania/Fey/Sylvan.  Also, there is a fair bit of Japanese and Spanish folded into the word list.  Finally I found a terse word list of actual "sylvan" so that is where everything else comes from.  Anyone is welcome to work on these of course. 
 
Some nonsense sounds from the pixie voice set as found in a google search with my guesses on what they mean.  Seems a good phonetic template to me for the style to shoot for:
 
Fliji yuma boogba! ---You will regret that!
 
Migio falafay - iga! --- You will die - here!
 
Soolna? -- Yes?
 
Wimi, ninfa! -- Oh, thank you!
 
Namo...fima ni. -- No...I can't.
 
I really think that as a matter of phonetic style this small list of phrases is something exceptionally appropriate to aspire to emulating.
