Urkhaim Dwarven (pronounced URK-aim) is a language spoken by the dwarves of Urkhaim. Largely separated from their dwarven kin for thousands of years, save for the occasional visitor, the tongue of the Urkhaim has diverged greatly from the Dwarven spoken elsewhere in the world, beginning as a dialect then turning into a full-fledged language in its own right.
Urkhaim Dwarven has kept the same overall structure and grammar of Dwarven, but the differences it has accumulated, combined with the great influence on its vocabulary from Targai, has rendered the language mutually unintelligible with its parent. Though the Urkhaim are not a particularly literary people, Dwarven runes continue to be used to write the language, with one important caveat. Rather than the typical right to left of Dwarven writing, Urhaim Dwarven uses a boustrophedon style.
