Kiravic Coscivian is the language of daily life, governance, and business in the District. With the exception of some recent immigrants/expatriates and even fewer internal migrants, virtually all adults living and working in the District understand Kiravic. In contrast, Kalverþan Coscivian is the prevailing language across most of neighbouring Ventarya and Hanoram. Today, Kartika and its inner metropolitan area form a Kiravic-speaking island in a Kalverþan-speaking lake. This was not always the case - When the District was established in [YEAR], the existing population spoke Kalverþan, and Kalverþan remained the predominant and administrative language for the first three decades or so of the Federal Era. After a brief period of trilingualism (Kalverþan, Kiravic, and South Coscivian) in the [DECADE], the District gradually transitioned toward being a Kirophone enclave. Kalverþan remained an administrative language for the District, concurrently with Kiravic, and continued to be spoken by a robust minority and often learned by migrants until the advent of Kirosocialism.

Unlike other Kiravic-speaking cities outside of the Kiravic heartland, such as [[Béyasar]] and [[Cities of Kiravia#Telmar|Telmar]], modern Kartika does not have a recognisably distinct local dialect or accent. Some phonographic evidence, written references, and personal anecdotes suggest that such an accent - influenced mainly by Estuary Kiravic and Kalverþan - may have existed before Kirosocialism, though this remains contested among dialectologists. R.A. Pimagrumav, a historical linguist at Founding Fathers' University and leading exponent of the dialect's existence, believes that the accent was strongest among the city's native middle class and likely became extinct one generation into the Kiravian Union, as the Kirosocialist overhaul of the city displaced most of the established residents, and those who remained likely suppressed their accent to avoid association with the old order.

Although it is located well to the south of the Lower Kiravic dialect belt, Kiravic as spoken in Kartika today tends to reflect more influences from the Upper Kiravic of Kiygrava and Niyaska.
