The '''Lahob languages''' (also '''Lahobic'''; Łaȟ. ''łaȟoḇoši eyšerê'', Tundra Pw. ''ɬakhowašuy duyětuy'', Chl. ''lahūbumi dældai'') are a language family on the planet of [[Verse:Calémere|Calémere]]; its Urheimat is in the far northern part of Evandor, where the greatest diversity among them is still found; the most spoken language of the family is however [[Chlouvānem]], spoken (along with its daughter languages) across large areas of Greater Evandor (in the continent of ''Márusúturon'' or ''Mārsūtram''), with [[Verse:Chlouvānem Inquisition|its own heartland]] more than 10,000 km away.<br/>

Names for the proto-language and for the language family in Lahob languages are almost non-existant apart from Chlouvānem, as most of them are native languages of traditional populations (a substantial number being hunter-gatherers), and calques from Western languages (mainly Gathura) are used; in Chlouvānem the family is called ''Lahūbumi dældai'' and Proto-Lahob is ''Olahūbumi dældā'' — the term ''Lahūbai'' for the Lahob people being a borrowing from Cerian ''Lahóbe''.
