Dzenol History

73[1]

  • Tsé[2] Nuna wanted an official language for his country, instead of communicating through gestures and pictures. This language was called Babadama.

90

  • Tsé Rupta updated Babadama and widened it's vocabulary.

152

  • Tsé Ogoxa changed the name of Babadama to Exendzenal which meant 'New Language'. He did this because the phonetic inventory did not fit the name as there was no /b/ sound.

200

  • The sound the sound /d/ shifted to a the sound /ʈ/ due to the constant use of consonants in the back of the mouth.

294

  • Ugr.[3] Xaporé created the first standardised writing system for Exendzenal. This was a logographic script called anatogo.
