Aghurzoi (“Cut Tongue” in Ihrimsû), is the original language of the Sranc. It is also known as Zohurric. In the Isûphiryas, the Sranc are first referred to as the Anyasiri, or the “Tongueless Howlers.” Through the first books of the Cûno-Inchoroi Wars, the Nonmen chroniclers seem reluctant to attribute the power of speech to the Sranc. By the time the first Nonmen scholars studied and recorded their speech, it had fractured into innumerable dialects.
