Mami is one of the major languages of the world, with more than 300 million native speakers as of 1900. It is the most spoken native language within the Mamis region, and 2nd in the world. Mami is the most widely spoken Mami language.

The language was made to create a language for the Mamis in my worldbuilding project, it was inspired by German, Latin, and a little bit by Turkish. The Mami had many iterations IRL, the first being more of a variation of English rather than its own language. But it was then revisited when I was working on Orla for the first time in 2022. The Mami language received its last iteration in June 2023, and I've been developing it since.

===Orthography===

Mami's Latin orthography is explained below, except for the difference between the circumflex and the h in long vowels. The circumflex is used when the vowel occurs initially or medially, and the h is used when the vowel occurs finally; the only exception is 'ü', which uses h in all positions when it's long.

====Writing System====

Mami uses the Mami ~~script, which is an~~ alphabet. ~~As of August 5th 2025 I have only developed 3 characters (plus 1 diacritic) within the script.~~
