Wolf Languages

Volkian wolves, being smarter than their real world counterparts, are able to communicate in languages similar to humans.

This page shows the languages that they speak.

Volkark Language
Volkark is the most common and recent language of wolves, and it is present throughout the whole first ark, and possibly the second ark. It was first called a distinct language from Wolf Latin about 4,500~ years ago.

To other animals, it sounds like a variaty of barks, whimpers, and clicks. Even if it is the main language of Volki, the books and graphic novels are translated in English, meaning a reader has no way of knowing what the words are.

Wolf Latin
Not much is known about Wolf Latin. However, it is known that it was widely used in the Volnega Period (Which existed 6,970~ years ago), before it evolved into present-day Volkark. It is also known that only a few wolves on Volki have mastered Wolf Latin, and it holds the same reputation as Latin on Earth.

Wolf Latin sounds like how wolves communicate in the real world. Their words still had hints of barks and growling.

Out of all the named wolves, Seastar, Manta and all the Saviors are the only ones who are able to speak it.

List of grammatical features
Plurals end in -i. Nouns can be compounded; the suffix is -a (Wolf of the snow = Volksneg = Volksnega)
