OOC:Proxy names for languages
Within NS Sport, for the sake of immersion, real-life languages (or "languages from RLStates") are often referred to by in-context (IC) names. There is no single accepted list of these, though the tables below document some common options.
Straight proxies
This table lists real-life languages and the names sometimes used within NS Sport to refer to them as a straight one-for-one proxy. If the IC name refers to a hybrid, creole, or other relationship that is not a straight one-for-one proxy, it should be listed under hybrid languages below. Conlangs also have their own separate table.
