The Usprian languages are a family of indigenous related languages of Aurora, consisting of three extant and nine extinct languages.
Kaltareg and Terghyntek are the remaining two languages of this family on continental Aurora, evolving from Eastern Morsic; whilst Toranslic, Rombaric, and Llygadian evolved from Western Morsic. Both eastern and western families stem from the wider Morsic subfamily.
The Zagruric and Korsian languages are all extinct, some thousands of years ago and some up until the early 20th century. The main cause of modern decline has been attributed to the domination of the Staynish and Ethalrian languages in a continental north-south central-third divide.
Llygadian is a language isolate in its region, being spoken in Llygad Duw in South Gondwana. A common theory is that it arrived from migratory Usprii speaking a proto form of the Western Morsic language in the second millennium BCE.
