Sadly, due to the limitations of GM and players, we tend to use English quite a lot. It's a very bad match for Sartarite, but what can you do?

I try to pick languages that the players do *not* speak, but that give a feel of "Old" to the whole thing. Welsh and Norse both do this for our group. If I acquired any Welsh players, I'd have to pick something else.
