Blairian Ænglish

Blairian Ænglish is a register of Ænglish originally developed by the poet Edwin Blair. It was designed to contain as many lexical and grammatical elements from Old Ænglish as possible, as well as preferring Gothic calques or loanwords for technical and scientific terminology, while maintaining mutual intelligibility. A passionate pan-Ænglist and Gothophile, Blair believed that Ænglish liberation and unification could only be accomplished with support from and solidarity with the other Gothic peoples of northern Levantia, and saw the removal of Gaelic and Latinic elements from Ænglish as vital to asserting the "Gothic" spirit of the Ænglish. He began developing the "resourcement of Ænglish" during the 1860s, and the project reached its peak of public interest with the Concordat of Donnebourg, reuniting Anglei into a single state of which Blair was a national.

His primary opponents were the Anglo-Urceanists, who identified the success of the Ænglish people as coming through continued friendship with Urcea and union with the Holy Levantine Empire, viewed pan-Ænglishism as a primarily cultural project, and approached positively the influence of Gaels and Levantines on Ænglish civilization. They thus supported Julian Ænglish which became the standard variety of the language in Anglei. Though the fortunes of Blairian Ænglish in Anglei declined in the aftermath of the First Great War, it was readily adopted in Alstin in both high society and education, and gradually supplanted the variety of Julian Ænglish used in the country through the 19th century. Its adoption took place as part of a larger project by leaders to create a unique national identity rooted in the nation's Ænglish heritage. It is now the primary version of Ænglish spoken in Alstin.
