Dialects edit

There are two dialects.[2]

  • Tir (North Tusian)
  • Win (South Tusian)

The northern and southern dialects have difficulty understanding each other.

The northern dialect is spoken to the north, east, and south of Orodara. The southern dialect is spoken in and around Toussiana.[3]
