About Masserdein
Masserdein (Uszerdannedein /uʃ ɘr dɐn dɪen/) is spoken in the fictional work Vindhoek (Vindtzokke /ʋinð tɕøk/). It has Germanic, Gothic and some Cyrillic features. One Germanic feature is the use of the eszett. The language bears similarity most to Polish, Swedish, English and German. The words originate from English and Spanish, but sound Dutch or Danish. Take for example the word nukka (/ŋuk ɐ/), never, is derived from Spanish nunca. Or perhaps sappens (/sap ənʒ/), human, comes from English-Latin Homo Sapiens. Some words are completely nonrelated, like oder (/oɖ ər/) meaning maybe.
