It is intended as a guide and not a strict conversion - as a general rule a 4e character will be passably fluent in a large number of languages in the Iron Kingdoms.The chart below assumes that the 4e languages and scripts are used as-is (aside from being renamed for flavor) and that each 4e language can include a multitude of tongues that in the 3e rules were separate.Language     Iron Kingdoms LanguagesCommon; Cygnaran, Khadoran, Llaelese, Sulese, Ordic, High TordorisDeep Speech; NoneDraconic; TkraDwarven; Rhulic, Miner RhulicElven; Aeric, ShyrGiant; Molgur-Og, Molgur-TrulGoblin; Farrow, Gobberish, Molgur, QuorPrimordial; NoneSupernal; TelgeshAbyssal; NokiriScript;    Iron Kingdoms ScriptsCommon; Caspian, KhadoranDavek: Rhulic, Rhul-RunicRellanic: Aeric, ShyricIokharic: TkraDavek: MolgurBarazhad: Saelaan glyphs, Nonokrian glyphsSupernal: Telgesh glyphsNew Languages and Scripts (IK Languages)    Used By     ScriptCant (Five Cant, Swampie)  Pirates, criminals, river-folk     CommonScharde Tongue (Scharde Tongue)  Cryxians     CommonSkorne (Skorne)     Skorne     SkorneTharn (Tharn)     Tharn     NoneSatyxi (Satyxi)    Satyx     SatyxiThrallspeak (Thrallspeak)     Undead thralls     NoneZunus (Zunus)      Zu     ZunusFurther Collapsing Languages: To further reduce the implementation of new languages in 4e do the following - Scharde Tongue, Five Cant, and Swampie added to Common. Thrallspeak added to Abyssal. This leaves four new languages and three new scripts. These languages are rather obscure, and largely in use by NPCs you will rarely interact with.CHARACTER RACESHumans (all regions)As PHB Humans, pp. 46-47.
