Tainean is named after the [[Taineans]], the descendants of an ancient [[Cronan peoples|Cronan]] group that migrated from [[Crona]] in the 12 Century BC via the few [[Heaven Ships]] which have managed to land in [[Vallos]], who soon intermarried with the indigenous [[Vallosi people]], and its speakers are called Tainophones. Brenadine Tainean accounts for over 90% of speakers of the Tainean language branch. | Tainean is named after the [[Taineans]], the descendants of an ancient [[Cronan peoples|Cronan]] group that migrated from [[Crona]] in the 12 Century BC via the few [[Heaven Ships]] which have managed to land in [[Vallos]], who soon intermarried with the indigenous [[Vallosi people]], and its speakers are called Tainophones.

[[Latino-Tainean pidgin]] began as the result of contact between the Taineans and the [[Latinic people|Latins]] during antiquity. This creole utilised Latino-Tainean pidgins and languages as a {{wp|lingua franca}} between the two groups. With the influx of [[Bergendii]] Protestant refugees in the 19th Century, the Latino-Tainean pidgin soon became [[Burgo-Tainean creole]] with loanwords from [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]] finding their way into Tainean vocabulary. By [[1900]], the language had evolved into [[Brenado-Tainean creole]], and by that time the [[Academy for the Preservation of Tainean Culture]] had decided to embark on a significant reform of the creole along the lines of Burgoignesc, most notably the use of Latino-Tainean innovations alongside Burgoignesc-style spelling and grammatical construction.

In [[1904]], these reforms culminated in the birth of Brenadine Tainean, with the new language starting to be used in Ostiecian schools in [[1905]], in Aronan schools in [[1907]], and in schools in what's now northern Rumahoki in [[1911]], displacing native [[Tainean language|Tainean]] dialects as the most commonly-spoken form of Tainean by [[1952]]. | ||

The development of Brenadine Tainean isolated the language from the other Ta-Cronan languages and influences and even from native Tainean itself, and has since diverged considerably. Brenadine Tainean is not {{wp|mutual intelligibility|mutually intelligible}} with any of the remaining native Tainean dialect, differing in vocabulary, syntax, and phonology. | The development of Brenadine Tainean isolated the language from the other Ta-Cronan languages and influences and even from native Tainean itself, and has since diverged considerably.

The development of Brenadine Tainean was also influenced by a long series of contact with foreign peoples with their own languages, particularly Burgoignesc. This left a profound mark of their own on the language, so that Brenadine Tainean shows some similarities in vocabulary and grammar with languages outside its linguistic {{wp|clade|clades}}, with Burgoignesc loanwords being mutually intelligible in sound between the two languages. Because of this, some scholars have argued that Brenadine Tainean may be considered a {{wp|mixed language}} or a {{wp|creole language}} much like its linguistic ancestors. Although the great influence of Burgoignesc on the vocabulary and grammar of Brenadine Tainean is widely acknowledged, most specialists in language contact do not consider Brenadine Tainean to be a true mixed language. | The development of Brenadine Tainean was also influenced by a long series of contact with foreign peoples with their own languages, particularly Burgoignesc.

Brenadine Tainean is classified as a Ta-Cronan language because it shares {{wp|language change|innovations}} with native Tainean dialects. These shared innovations showed that the languages have descended from a single common ancestor called Cronan. Brenadine Tainean is classified as a Brenado-Tainean language because of the heavy influence of the Burgoignesc language. | Brenadine Tainean is classified as a Ta-Cronan language because it shares {{wp|language change|innovations}} with native Tainean dialects.
