The Blink Dog language was the racial language of blink dogs, an intelligent breed of canines.[2][3][4][5][6][7]
Phonology[]
Blink Dog was an entirely verbal language, lacking any sort of writing system.[1] Being that blink dogs were canines, the language consisted largely of various barks, growls, whines, and yaps. Despite its outward simplicity, Blink Dog was considered to be a complex language,[2][3][4][5][6] capable of communicating intricate information.[6]
Notable Speakers[]
- Derry Brandondale, a human who owned two blink dogs and operated the Friendly Familiar pet shop in Ravens Bluff in the late 14th century DR.[8]
