Eldian language (Anime)

Eldian (エルディア語) is the official language of Eldia, Marley, and many other nations around the world.

Description
As a result of the old Eldian Empire's imperialism, Eldian is a well known language throughout the world. It is spoken both inside and outside the Walls, although their writing systems differ.

Accents vary, as Armin Arlelt says that if they are to go to Marley, they would have to pay attention to the way they talk. The citizens of Dauper have their own accent, which Gabi Braun likens to Southern Marley's.

Appearances
This writing is first encountered when the Scout Regiment settles in Utgard Castle after searching for a supposed breach in Wall Rose. They found supplies that were left behind by unknown occupants, but the labels on them are unreadable to most of the soldiers. When Ymir goes to find food in the castle storage, she discovers a can with a herring label on it which she proceeded to read out loud. She hands the can to Reiner Braun, who is shocked to find out that she can read the writing. Unknown to him, she also comes from Marley.

Trivia

 * Although the writing on the wine bottle is simple gibberish, the writing on the can of herring is Japanese katakana turned upside down and slightly altered to make its reading difficult and give the impression that it is a different language. However, unlike the writing found inside the Walls, which is read left to right (like regular Japanese), the writing on the herring can is read right to left.
 * The popularity and spread of Eldian is similar to English. Their respective empires also conquered a large portion of the known world at some point.
