|quote=The Roshterian tongue is surely one of the most bountiful trove of jewels for the student of languages. One cannot but marvel at its great depth and uncanny familiarity ... While its words and forms display some affinity to our own language [Dxaetjeon], they are even more akin to the ancient [[Thensarian]] language, indeed to such a degree that its Talmic provenance cannot be doubted ... Curiously, the Roshterian speech in particular is pronounced with consonants with tongue-curling not unlike those of the [[Maytyarri|Maytjari]] ... it has a proclivity towards using lengthy words for single utterances where a multitude of smaller words and prefixes combine in a quite volatile manner, reminding one of the language of old Tíogall texts ... I think it proper to further study this curious language, which surely will yield a great wealth of information concerning the common forebear of Talmic languages.
