Line 33: Line 33:
The ancestors of modern-day Roshterians are thought to have been an autochthonous people, possibly Clofabic-speaking, who gradually adopted the language of the Talmic immigrants from the west. Until relatively recent times little was known of this language to outsiders (save for a handful of legends of a race of "backwards-talking" people with bodies of reversed chirality).

<!-- The first written example of a complete Roshterian sentence: "I would like to speak the Roshterian language, but alas, I cannot" -->
The first written example of a complete Roshterian sentence is written as ''Orobirorsterimaslaikan. Hoi, misluperen.'', meaning 'I would like to speak the Roshterian language; alas, I cannot.' (In modern Roshterian orthography: ''Qoṟbiros̱ṯerimyxaicyn, hooqamixuuperen.''). This sentence was likely written by an non-native speaker of Roshterian, seeing by the fact that evidentials, which would be required in this sentence, were omitted.
