 That this "//ancient tongue//" is still actively expanded by them (causing there to be a slew of kavkem-specific //Kendane͡ivash// words) does not make them refer to it as anything else. The Nayabaru may sometimes call it //kavkemic//, though. Or, you know, "//the language those terrorists use//".

 Some [[:kazeqen|Draconic]] subcultures use //Kendane͡ivash//, especially when interacting with Threadwielders (i.e. almost surely [[:character:Zalaagra]]), but knowledge of the language is much more spotty than it is with kavkema, as it is usually not the main tongue of the respective culture. In most places that are aware of //Kendane͡ivash// at all, the language shares a status broadly comparable to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esperanto|Esperanto]] with humans.
