'''Anserisan''' (''lo Anserisano'' [lo ɑ̃səʁizano]) is a language isolate. It probably evolved from other speaking languages in the [[South Pacific (Pacifica)|South Pacific]] since some may recognize parts of the language but there has been no absolute proof. Similarities between Anserisan and [[Mauquibian language (Pacifica)|Mauquibian]] have led people to speculate that the Anserisans might be descendants of the Mauquibians.

Today, Anserisan is mostly only spoken in [[Anserisa (Pacifica)|Anserisa]] and the Anserisan diaspora living abroad.

Anserisan is an official language only in Anserisa.

==History==

Anserisan is an isolate language which is believe to have evolved from other languages although it is not possible to absolutely confirm.

===Proto-Anserisan===

The establishment of the first settlements on the island begins in 814. The origin of the settlers is unknown to this date but it is possible that settlers came from various regions and developed a common language over time. The only lasting manuscripts we have from that time denotes a language, ''Sermone'' which is similar to Anserisan. The most important manuscript from the era is the ''Scripturam legere septentrionalem insulis nuntiabunt''<ref>''Scripturam legere septentrionalem insulis nuntiabunt (Manuscript of writing of the northern islands)'', (857). National Library of Anserisa, Brantavilla.</ref> which explains how to write this language.

===Old Anserisan===

As the Anserisan society developed, a form of refined language became what is known today as ''Old Anserisan'' or ''Castoridorian'' because of its development in the [[County of Castorida (Pacifica)|County of Castorida]], appearing just a little bit before the establishment of the [[Principality of Anserisa (Pacifica)|Principality of Anserisa]], mostly attributed to appear with the creation of the [[History of Anserisa (Pacifica)|Council of Envoys]] in 1387.

===Modern Anserisan===

The modern Anserisan as we know it today, appeared with the establishment of the first public schools during the reign of [[List of leaders of Anserisa (Pacifica)|Prince Stéphano IV]], especially with the establishment of the Prince's School for Children, established in 1602 in Brantavilla. There, ''Old Anserisan'' began to be standardized and became simply Anserisan.

===New Anserisan===

The establishment of the [[History of Anserisa (Pacifica)|Anserisan Empire]] in 1792 saw the creation of new language ''[[New Anserisan language (Pacifica)|New Anserisan]]''. At the demand of [[List of leaders of Anserisa (Pacifica)|Emperor Hadriano]], a group of linguist received the task of reforming Anserisan into a new language. Led by Novatiano Concinium, the group created what is called ''Novo Anserisano'', a language which was then adopted by the Emperor as the official language of Anserisa in 1809 but that decision was reverted in 1815 with the establishment of the [[Anserisa (Pacifica)|Republic of Anserisa]].
