'''Creeperian''' ({{color|#122080|/kɾiːˈpɛəriː.ɛn/}}, ''{{color|#122080|kree-PAIR-ee-en}}''; endonym: Ծրեեպերիանո / ''Creeperiano'' {{small|pronounced}} {{color|#122080|[ˌkɾepeɾiˈano]}} {{small|or}} {{color|#122080|[ˌkɾipeɾiˈano]}}) is a [[Ayreoshubic languages|Ayreoshubic language]] of the [[Ecro-Avansertian languages|Ecro-Avansertian language family]]. Creeperian evolved from the [[Romanyan Iberic language]] with influences from the [[Xichútepan language|Xichútepan]], [[Arabic language|Arabic]], and [[Deltinian language]]s. With 621 million first and second language speakers, Creeperian is one of the world largest languages. Creeperian is an official language in [[Creeperopolis]], [[El Salvador]], [[Rakeo]], and the [[State of the Church]]; a recognized minority language in [[Lurjize]] and [[Sequoyah]]; and one of the six official languages of the [[Terraconserva Council of Nations]].

'''Spanish''' is a language spoken to native populations of [[Greater Sacramento]] and [[Creeperopolis]]. It originated from [[Romanyan Iberic]] coming from the dialect spoken in the city of [[Romanya]] where it split off from [[Ziqaric]] in the 3rd century though was not recognizable to it's modern form. The language stayed stagnant during the christian era of [[Greater Sacramento]] up until the Islamic takeover of [[Andaluzia]] where [[Classical Spanish]] began to form and received it's [[Arabic]] vocabulary. [[Deltinians]] spread the language from [[Andaluzia]] into [[Creeperopolis]] through the [[Deltino (Caliphate)|Caliphate of Deltino]] but today the two Spanishes are different as [[Andaluzian Spanish]] has more [[Arabic]] vocabulary due to being under constant Islamic influence where as [[Creeperian Spanish]] continued to use original terms. Today there are two Standard forms of Spanish with one in both [[Greater Sacramento]] and [[Creeperopolis]].  
+
Creeperian is a part of the Southern Ayreoshubic language branch, of which it is the largest member. Creeperian is one of the several Southern Ayreoshubic languages which descended from vulgar Romanyan Iberic which was spoken across areas of [[Northern Sur]] where the [[Romanyan Empire]] controlled or influenced. The earliest form of Creeperian, known as Craeperian or [[Old Creeperian language|Old Creeperian]], is attested as early as the 2nd century AD in manuscripts written in the [[Craeperian Republic]], but linguists disagree when Creeperian became its own language as opposed to being a dialect of Romanyan Iberic. There are several dialects of Creeperian, the largest of which are Northern, Southern, Islander, Rakeoian, and Lurjizean.

== Andaluzian Standard Spanish ==

Creeperian is written in both the [[Iberic script]] and the [[Creeperian script]]. As a descendant of Romanyan Iberic, Creeperian has always been written in the Iberic script, but in 2020, the Creeperian government promoted the usage of the Creeperian script which had fallen out of use during the 600s as the Creeperian language supplanted common usage of indigenous Creeperian languages such as Xichútepan. According to a study conducted by the [[Antonio Sáenz Heredia University]] in 2023, around 48 percent of Creeperans describe themselves as being able to read the Creeperian language in the Creeperian script, but only 12 percent state they primarily read and write in the Creeperian script.

Andaluzian Spanish is spoken in [[Andaluzia]], [[Greater Sacramento]]. It used the [[Arabic Script]] and vocabulary tends to consist of loans words from [[Shazaqanic]], [[Lyoan]], [[Arabic]], and [[Azumanakan]] though [[Arabic]] is the most influential as the region as been [[Islam|Islamic]] since the 700s.

Most of the dialects of Creeperian are mutually intelligible with each other, with most speakers finding different accents to be a larger factor in mutual intelligibility than differences in grammar, vocabulary, and phonology between dialects. The two largest dialects of Creeperian are Northern and Southern, spoken in northern and southern Creeperopolis, respectively. Other notable dialects in Creeperopolis include Western Creeperian (spoken in the departments along the [[Creeperopolis–El Salvador border]] and the [[Castillianan departments]]), Islander Creeperian (spoken in the [[San Carlos Islands]]), and Sequoyan Creeperian (spoken in [[Nuevo Amanecer]], [[San Juan (department)|San Juan]], and the country of [[Sequoyah]]). Dialects outside of Creeperopolis with over one million speakers include Rakeoian Creeperian and Lurjizean Creeperian.

Creeperian (/kɾiːˈpɛəriː.ɛn/, kree-PAIR-ee-en; endonym: Ծրեեպերիանո / Creeperiano pronounced [ˌkɾepeɾiˈano] or [ˌkɾipeɾiˈano]) is a Ayreoshubic language of the Ecro-Avansertian language family. Creeperian evolved from the Romanyan Iberic language with influences from the Xichútepan, Arabic, and Deltinian languages. With 621 million first and second language speakers, Creeperian is one of the world largest languages. Creeperian is an official language in Creeperopolis, El Salvador, Rakeo, and the State of the Church; a recognized minority language in Lurjize and Sequoyah; and one of the six official languages of the Terraconserva Council of Nations.

Creeperian is a part of the Southern Ayreoshubic language branch, of which it is the largest member. Creeperian is one of the several Southern Ayreoshubic languages which descended from vulgar Romanyan Iberic which was spoken across areas of Northern Sur where the Romanyan Empire controlled or influenced. The earliest form of Creeperian, known as Craeperian or Old Creeperian, is attested as early as the 2nd century AD in manuscripts written in the Craeperian Republic, but linguists disagree when Creeperian became its own language as opposed to being a dialect of Romanyan Iberic. There are several dialects of Creeperian, the largest of which are Northern, Southern, Islander, Rakeoian, and Lurjizean.

Creeperian is written in both the Iberic script and the Creeperian script. As a descendant of Romanyan Iberic, Creeperian has always been written in the Iberic script, but in 2020, the Creeperian government promoted the usage of the Creeperian script which had fallen out of use during the 600s as the Creeperian language supplanted common usage of indigenous Creeperian languages such as Xichútepan. According to a study conducted by the Antonio Sáenz Heredia University in 2023, around 48 percent of Creeperans describe themselves as being able to read the Creeperian language in the Creeperian script, but only 12 percent state they primarily read and write in the Creeperian script.
