Modron was the language spoken by all forms of modrons.[1]
Description[]
The Modron language was quite complex and precise.[2] To humanoids, it sounded like a series of "clicks and whirs".[3]
Speakers[]
Some planewalkers learned Modron as a secondary language, though it was considered to be more difficult to learn compared to some other planar languages.[4]
Grammar[]
There was no word in the Modron language for an individual to refer to itself in the single person. A modron always referred to itself as "we" or "us".[3]
Related Languages[]
The Lawful Neutral tongue was believed to have derived from the Modron tongue.[2]
