| '''Pantalan''' was the original language spoken by the residents on the continent of [[Pantala]]. It appears to be based on Latin in some aspects (such as "Luna", meaning "moon" for Pantala's residents), as well as most words being based off of plant parts. The language is not used in present Pantala. [[Clearsight]] taught the Pantalan dragons how to speak [[Dragon (Language)|Dragon]]. They might use the language for naming, such as Luna's name is "moon" in Pantalan.

| ==History==
| |
| In the prologue of [[The Lost Continent (Book)|''The Lost Continent'']], Clearsight met [[Sunstreak]] and a male [[LeafWings|LeafWing]]. The LeafWing spoke in the Old Language. In [[The Hive Queen|''The Hive Queen'']], [[Luna]] mentioned to Moonwatcher that her name means "moon" in the Old Language, but is now a type of moth. Later in the book, [[Lady Scarab]] mentioned the Old Language while telling [[Cricket]] the history of her tribe and her family.

| == Trivia ==
| |
| * This is the third language in the books, the first being Dragon and the second being [[Aquatic]].
| |
| * It appears to be based on Latin, Spanish, or Italian in some respects because Luna also means Moon in those three languages.
| |
| *When dragons spoke The Old Language on Pantala, the language "Dragon" was said to be spoken "some little" and to be "much old" by Sunstreak. Clearsight then wonders if Pantala and Pyrrhia had more contact in the past.
