About Akasetian
Akasetian is the formal and administrative language of the Japonic Empire of Akaset and is one of the seven official languages of the Empire, the others being Modern Akasetian and Kwaakir (both descended from Akasetian), Loroan, Welezin, Modern Osokoru, and Japanese. The Empire's linguistic situation is marked by polyglossia. Akasetian is primarily used for official, or otherwise formal, purposes, such as government writing, newspapers, and high arts, which are directed to the population of the entire nation. However, it may also be used for less formal purposes, such as in modern arts and entertainment, including modern novel writing, live theatre, music, television and film, and video games. It is uncommonly used as a daily conversational language for natives of the same region, where the modern native language of the region is used instead. However, it may be used as a conversational language between conversation partners from different regions who may not share a native language or a language in which all are proficient.
