Beringian language

Beringian is a West Machoric language, a descendent of Classical Magorian via Vulgar Magorian. Beringian is spoken in the state of Beringion, but it's a well known foreign language in Gondala due to its role in trade, science and literature.

Etymology
The name Beringian is derived from a historical person - Bering, a nephew of king Gwendelg the Conqueror of Magorion - who established the Machoric settlements in Beringion and is widely regarded as the founder of Beringian culture and what would later become the state of Beringion.

The Beringian term for the language is Bereujoif [bə.ʀœʒ.wɛf], a derivative from the name of the region / state - Bereujiou [bə.ʀœʒ.ju], itself a derivation of Bereuje [bə.ʀœʒ] (Bering, from Classical Magorian "Beringi") and iou (land, from CM jon).

History
The history of the Beringian language is rather complicated. In 24th century, when Magorion invaded the Asàel, a wave of Machoric immigrants settled in today's Beringion, taking their culture and language with them. At this point, the language spoken by the immigrants was mostly Vulgar Machoric, but the native language of the existing population were early forms of Coeric and some Southern Asatic dialects. The Machoric nobility remained speakers of Vulgar Machoric, while a pidgin of it and the local languages developed for the use of the lower class.

After Asàel regained control of the region almost three centuries later, in a few years course the existing Machoric nobility was stripped of their power and Arazi nobility installed as governors of the region. At this point, the local pidgin had already come to the stage of a creole and started effecting the Vulgar Machoric of the ex-nobility, which imported large numbers of borrowings from Asatic languages.

Even though in 2651 4A most of Beringion came under the control of Coedor, it was the Arazi language that remained the most prestigious form of communication. The lower-class creole language died out, but the direct descendant of Vulgar Machoric, initially spoken by the Machoric nobility, thrived and became the most widely spoken language in the area, even though it had been significantly influenced by the pidgin / creole of the lower class.

After the invention of the printing press in Beringion, the language quickly became standardized. Up until late 29th century, load words were imported in Beringian from Arazi and Coeric, but later Beringian became an exporter of terms and words in various fields, as the language gained prestige as a language of culture, literature, trade and science.
