-This page is meant as a Grammar and Syntax guide as well as lexicon of words for the Tretalleri 'dialect.' Though in modern linguistic parlance, Tretalleri is considered a 'dialect,' it is in fact a full language in and of itself. Tretalleri is only known as a dialect because it, along with the [[Dominion Era/Elledynnë (Culture)|High Elfin]] tongue [[Lexicon:Elle'lyndë/Elledyn'ni|Elledyn'ni]], fall under the blanket term of ''Elle'lyndë''—typically translated as the Language of the Stars. It is important to note that Elle'lyndë is not considered a language in and of itself, except for theorists on the fringes of the Tretalleri linguistics community, who believe Elle'lyndë to be a hypothetical language bridging the two great languages of the Elves, one that is currently being rediscovered in the mixed communities that are allowed to exist in the [[Termalttë#The Fen|Fen]].

-The most accepted theory is that Tretalleri is descended from a precursor language that it shares in common with Elledyn'ni: Aen{{sub|e}}velyndë, the language of the Great Elves of the East, the Aen{{sub|e}}vë. Because what is known of Aen{{sub|e}}velyndë is limited to only what has been found in fragments of pottery scattered all over the southern regions of [[Termalttë|Di'Termalttë]], little is empirically known about the way in which Tretalleri descended from Aen{{sub|e}}velyndë. Legend has it, however, that Tretalleri was a tongue that the [[Dominion Era/The Prophetess|Prophetess Llyrileýwa]] helped the ancestors of the [[Dominion Era/Tretallë (Culture)|Tretallë]] develop in order to maintain the façade that they were little but savage beasts—a façade that helped the building rebellion remain hidden from the [[Aenevë|Aen{{sub|e}}vë]]. What ''is'' widely known is that compared to Aen{{sub|e}}velyndë, Tretalleri is guttural and ''harsh.''
