Ad�naic

In the fiction of J. R. R. Tolkien, Ad�naic ("language of the west") was the language of the men of Numenor. The Westron or Common Speech, widely spoken in Middle-earth during the Third Age, was largely derived from Ad�naic.

Ad�naic itself is said to derive from the ancient languages of Men, although its origin is never made clear.
