Atlantean

From lingoXpress, the open language reference.

Atlantean is the ancient language of Atlantis from Disney's animated film, created by the inventor of Klingon.

Description

Atlantean (Dig Adlantisag) was created by linguist Marc Okrand — famous for creating Klingon — for Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001). Designed as a 'mother language' from which all human languages descended in the film's lore, Atlantean features a unique writing system (a boustrophedon script that alternates direction), a vocabulary inspired by Indo-European and Sumerian roots, and a grammar designed to feel ancient yet learnable. It is one of the most complete constructed languages created for an animated film.
