  • The Selucian language (Lingua Seluciana) is part of the Superseleyan Family and placed in the Selucic tree. Over centuries the language became what it is now. During the unifying wars in the early history of Selucia nationalist leaders saw the need of one common language and it was a logical step to use the classical Selucian language which was used on all islands for business contracts or diplomatic treaties with each other. The literary language, called Modern Standard Selucian or Literary Selucian, is the only official form of Selucian. It is used in most written documents as well as in formal spoken occasions, such as lectures and news broadcasts. The standardized written Selucian is distinct from and more conservative than all of the spoken varieties, and the two exist in a state known as diglossia, used side-by-side for different societal functions. Colloquial Selucian dialects (Vulgar Selucian) continue to be spoken by Selucians in informal contexts, while in areas outside Selucia these dialects developed into the Selucic languages, such as Augustan, Canrillaise, Ushalandan, or Arbanian.
