  • Tho Fan, the Old Tongue, is a language spoken in the Jade Empire. Many people spoke it, but it was concentrated in the Prosperous East. In the game, Tho Fan is spoken by certain people the protagonist encounters, and is translated by them into english subtitles (english, for obvious reasons, plays the role of the primary language of the Empire, while Tho Fan is the "Old Tongue"). Tho Fan is fairly unique amongst fictional languages in electronic games (or was at the time) because it was developed for BioWare by then Ph.D. candidate and linguist Wolf Wikeley specifically for the game. While it contains sounds similar to those found in Chinese and Japanese, it is a wholly independent language with its own grammatical structure and vocabulary.
