About Granggo
Between Norway and Greenland lies a frigid island nation known as Limberwisk. Originally documented by Youtuber Geography Now, Limberwisk, with most of its inhabitants living in its eastern Ujarak Peninsula, is known and was documented to speak the language of the Hush people, however, Geography Now failed to examine the prominent minority language spoken by the Granggo people in the valleys of their westernmost province, Mountland.
The Granggo people have had a rich culture and history in their Mountland home for centuries, but more importantly, they have spoken their own language for centuries which shows no linguistic similarity to Hush, or any language on Earth for that matter. Their language has a system of six cases (nominative, accusative, genitive, dative, instrumental, and vocative) and three numbers (singular, dual, and plural). However, what surprised researchers the most upon discovery of this language was the rare 'free word order' it exhibited. Researchers also were interested in the sound set of the language, being composed of sounds made from the back of the mouth.
Though the Grango have schooling institutions in which their language and writing system, among other subjects, is taught to their youth. Though many Granggos speak Hush as a second language, Grango remains the predominant tongue in the region. The Granggos have an organized society and greatly value education. Children learn Grango from birth and continue learning it in school, however, from age 10, they study a foreign language, most commonly Hush but also languages such as Norwegian, Icelandic, Faroese, Danish, Greenlandic, and English.
