Menarilish is a dialect of Teonaht. I haven't started charting its
features yet, but they are in my head. There are three main regions
of Teon: Ilirila, Menarila, Melpomnea. Tsorilai Mundya is in Menarila.
Presumably, they all have dialects, and Teonaht is the "received
standard." I've also mulled around Nenddeylyt quite a bit, but put
very little to paper.
