(I thought that I had posted this previously, but the Search function doesn't show it. In either case I have added a paragraph at the end.)
Daniel Rosenquist tells us (in The Imaskar Empire, here at Candlekeep) that southern steppe dialects are closer to ancient Roushum than other dialects of the descendants of the Imaskari and their slaves, but that the southern dialects have "adopted much from Muhjuri." Given that the known Imaskarcana are rather fussy about how they ought to be addressed, what are (probably) the safest rules of pronunciation for Roushum when dealing with Imaskari ruins and relics? Will someone knowledgeable about the Imaskari please let us know? This is going to be important to my players sometime soon. Heheheheheh....
(I have seen the pages on eastern languages in The Horde boxed set, and I have the Dragon Annual article on "Linguistics of Faerun," so, as far as I am concerned, be technical in your reply, if you feel it is necessary.)

I have a mouth, but I am in a library and must not scream.
