Regal Dòn Proper (dN haGniXshiN naZshiNA Don Hàanììshin Nááshín), otherwise Regal Dòn, Dòn Proper or simply Dòn, is a Hro-Don language of the Don branch. Although not a vulgar language, a role filled by its various relatives (such as Outlands Dòn, a sister to Regal Dòn), and being quite ancient (~1100 years old), it survives as the formal lingua franca of literature, religion and politics across the near-totality of the hashka populations of Anschuhe. It is of particular interest to linguists for its large toneme inventory and for being a non-hominin language (i.e. not originally spoken by either humans or jötnar).
Although originally written with a complex logographic script (Hashka hieroglyphs), in an attempt to increase literacy rates across the RSS, former queen Ngo Ngar Dèeil Iinshin, personally created the Lo script (from lF loó meaning "small") in 4589 CY.
