[[Middle Valthungian]] represents a period in the development of [[Valthungian]] lasting from around ~~1200‒1600 a.d.~~ marked mainly by palatalization of a great many consonants as well as some minor reduction to unstressed vowels. Though this is a range which experienced many changes, the most representative example of “Middle Valthungian” is the language as captured by the suddenly-prolific Valthungian writers at the beginning of the Renaissance, circa 1450‒1500 a.d.
