'''Qabóri''' (''Qabóróc''), referred to in some contexts as '''Reformed Latin Qabóri''' (''Efkaseči Ulâtai Qabóróc''), is a [[Modern Abioic language]] in the [[Cronan language family]]. Qabóri is a more Latinized version of [[Old Qabóric]], owing to heavy influencing from [[Sarpedon|Sarpedonian]] languages stemming from [[Caphiric Latin]] in the 17th and 18th centuries. The modern-day iteration of Qabóri originated between 1805–1808. Today, Qabóri is one of two official languages of [[Tierrador]] and [[Istrenya]], along with being  a secondary language in [[Ceylonia]], [[Porlos]], and [[Kiravia]]. As of 2035, there are almost 360 million Qabóri speakers globally.

Qabóri is named after the [[Qabóri people]], which are the main ethnic group credited with developing [[Pan-Qabóri civilization]], which is the dominant culture in [[South Crona]]. Those who speak Qabóri are referred to as Qabórophones. The [[Qabórophonic Community]] consists of the five nations that list Qabóri as an official and minority language. Qabóri accounts for 75% of speakers in the Modern Abioic language branch.

Interactions between Sarpedonian, [[Levantia|Levantine]], and the [[Tierrador#Qabóri Woqalate|Qabóri Woqalate]] led to the creation of [[Sarpdo-Abioic pidgin]], which was utilized by mainly Sarpedonians (through Cartadanian Ceylonia) and the Qabóri Nation. Eventually, following the collapse of the first Qabóri Woqalate in the early 18th century, the expansion of [[Coscivian civilisation|Coscivian culture]] and [[Kiravic Coscivian|their language]] led to the creation of the [[Cosco-Qabóri pidgin]], comprised of loanwords from Coscivian and a small bit from [[Cartadanian language|Cartadanian]]. In the mid to late-18th century, the presence of Cartadania in neighboring Ceylonia led to the establishment of a sizable Cartadanian and [[Pelaxia|Pelaxian]] diaspora in the regions of [[Aracadó]], [[Republic of Auqali & Sonaxa (1727–1910)|Auqali & Sonaxa]], [[Republic of Tawakee (1877–1965)|Tawakee]], and [[Las Rozas]]. The influx of some Cartadanian and [[w:Spanish language|Pelaxian]] words evolved the language into [[Sarpdo-Qabóri]]. By the early 19th century, many modifications to the spelling and "Qabóricization" of these words had created the Reformed Latin Qabóri language that is used today. In 1826, the [[Qabóri Linguistics Office]] was formed, and in 1851, the first Qabóri dictionary had been published by said office. It has been updated 19 times since first being published, and was last updated in 2019.
