[OWDP] Languages

As some of you may know, I started a Greyhawk Dictionary Project [LINK] a while back. I'll be posting sample lexicons for those languages I've toyed with in the appropriate [OWDP] threads, but I thought this was a good place to discuss languages in general.

And, I came up with a funky flowchart showing how they're all related, while you might enjoy:

A quick question: Since Keoland was settled primarily by Suel fleeing the Rain of Colorless Fire, wouldn't their language show a strong Suel influence?

Most likely, at least IMC, though I can't hang with the canon view that Common is the most widely spoken language in Keoland and its former states.
