Linguistic Genealogy of Vak
The language Vak has a fairly clear and short genealogy compared to other ancient languages.
Vak became Ancient Elvish as the gods taught magic to the Elves of Cormyr. Over the centuries this language split into modern-day Elvish on the surface and Mörktspråk in the Underdark, respectively. While the modern Elvish language hasn't evolved much since the olden days, its evolution from Old Elvish was so complicated that linguists are still tracing its progression to this day.
