High Coscivian is regularly employed as a matrix for the translation between Coscivian vernacular languages. As all literary languages in the Coscivian cultural sphere have been translating texts both to and from High Coscivian and have well-established paradigms for doing so, filtering text through High Coscivian during the translation process is found to improve accuracy, reduce ambiguity, and improve the syntactic and stylistic quality of translations. | High Coscivian is regularly employed as a matrix for the translation between Coscivian vernacular languages.

Somewhat surprisingly, given the archipelago's remoteness from the traditional lands of the Coscivian Empire and the mostly Austronesian ancestry of its population, contemporary use of High Coscivian is especially vigorous in [[Sarolasta]]. Sarolasta is home to X indigenous Austronesian languages, and no one vernacular language predominated among the Coscivian colonists in the Sarolastan islands - [[Kalvertan Coscivian|Kalvertan]], Kiravic, [[South Coscivians#Language|Hekko-Southern]], Maritime Coscivian, Paisonic, Lusan, Kerēgulan, and others were used in one settlement or another. The centrality of the Coscivian Catholic Church as a religious and cultural institution and the main provider of education in Sarolasta engendered the proliferation of High Coscivian as the primary medium for interethnic formal communication and publishing. Sarolasta has four High Coscivian daily newspapers, whereas Great Kirav only has one. | Somewhat surprisingly, given the archipelago's remoteness from the traditional lands of the Coscivian Empire and the mostly Austronesian ancestry of its population, contemporary use of High Coscivian is especially vigorous in [[Sarolasta]].
