Example of the vertical Ostron script and its letters.
The lenguaje Ostronita is used by the denizens of Cetus. The written form can be found all over signs and banners found around Cetus, while the spoken language can be heard from the people you will encounter there.
What is interesting to note is that while the written language translates to English, the Ostrons have verbal words that do not translate the same way, each with their own meanings, some of which are denoted below in the known translations section.
