LINGUISTIC FEATURES EMERGING:
The most unusual feature is the ingressive pulmonic sounds. This almost never happens on Earth. Examples are !Xoo language and paralinguistically in western European languages
The Shared World Name:

Linguistics/Language Evolution:
It would only take 70-90 generations for the connections to the ancient language to be absolutely lost entirely:
Mha’hwe-Phínhā: Language and Physicality of Resident Beings: Discussed “Lower gravity so significantly different physiology”, i.e. larger beings (“Giants”) – this would mean they age slower, and therefore from a language perspective they would have been be speaking the equivalent of Shakespearean English – BUT they are the deaf and sign language based culture.
