Taalen
Spoken in: Sovrandas /soˈvran.dəs/
Timeline/Universe: The Coil (the Crux universe)
Total speakers: 2.8 million (or something)
Genealogical classification: Súren branch of the Sovrandian family

Pronounced /'tɑ.lɛn/.
From tal 'tree' + ra 'speak' + -en agentive suffix: 'Treespeaker', used metonymically. If compounded currently instead of anciently, this results in tallen, which is used to indicate the individual Treespeaker (roughly equivalent to a shaman) as opposed to the language.
