I'm so creative with subject titles! 
Anyway, I'm coming up with a story that, at the time of me writing this, takes place between TE: A and TE: B (or so it was decided, since it would fit better that way.) I'm going to be namedropping an ancient language of TerraEarth into the story, and my OH SO CREATIVE self can't think of a good name for the language!
...for those interested, my own idea was "Ancient Terearthian" or rather just "Terearthian" but that just sounds sort of silly to me.  So, I want to hear some opinions/ideas on what I should name this language.
GO GO GO.

Terrabanter sounds tempting. :p
I'm not sure.  Never had to name a language before... if you're creating a new language for a story, then it stands to reason there are a people who speak said language, thusly, name it after them.
If I'm wrong then I apologize, and if you don't have a name for these people, erm, Zantharian? I dunno.

Well since the "ancient dead civilization" in TE is the Moon Tribe, something along the lines of "lunarian", "solimyic" or "lunathryric" seems to fit. Of course it's your call. Your story is gonna be badass, raini!
[edit: Oh, and somewhere along the lines, I moved up to level 17. Go me... I guess!]

Or maybe go with one of Jason's ideas.

@ EP: It is being considered, then. 
@ SBiF: Not yet, no. Still in the planning stages.
@ Jason: I might just add to the canon of our boards and there can always be another one too. And thanks! I hope so.
@ Freedan: DONE AND-- oh wait.  Sorry, dark knight. But don't worry, if it's any consolation, we totally live together in my own story.

Well of course. It's canon too!

Well, technically I'm de-canonizing everything that predates TE:A and using the story of TE: Adventures (albeit slightly tweaked) as the basis for TE:A.
But yeah... it r canon alright.
Hmm... too bad you requested no nudity in the game... that would have made for an interesting FMV... Hot Coffee TE style...

I like what we have set up for the stuff before TE: A, so it's all good, you know?
...and had that happened, I would have killed you and cannibalized your corpse.
