(Main article: English)

The English language has been part of Novisviat for over 250 years. English is the most spoken language in Novisviat next to Polish, English settlers are mostly in inner Novisviat like Mary's Port or in some pockets of the coast like Daffney. There are also many other cities that have English majority language like Sandcastle. The most English speaking is actually not in a English major city, it is Lipcon, the capital of Novisviat. Lipcon has a difficult situation as half of the population is English first language but the situation is now improving as Polish speakers start learning English in schools. The English language also boomed in the 1920s up to 1940s when Wolf of Flussburg has made less Polish speakers and more German and English speakers. English is also used in the Government and also a requirement as Governor of Novisviat. Knowing English also improves job-seeking substantially. English is taught in schools as a primary language.

Polish Language
The Polish language has been first introduced by the Polish colonists in 1555 when a ship from Oliva, Gdansk has came with settlers where they settled what now day is called Lipcon. Polish language is a second language that is mostly in schools to choose between English or Polish. Polish is also the majority language in the Capital, Lipcon. Novisviatian Polish is mostly the same but usually speakers also slip English words to the sentences, like O.K or Alright. Polish is very useful in the State of Lipcon. Polish has been falling in popularity where recently it has been dropped as a requirement to know it as Governor since Wolf of Flussburg. The Polish language however is good to learn as most lower class jobs use the Polish language instead of English. Polish is also used in Local government as well as English. Polish is taught in schools as a primary language.
