Rhaunvish in the common name for the west Moigthe language which is part of the Donavish branch of Ancient High Gwenyan. It was a preliterate language spoken over a roughly 1150 years, from about 1400 AS to 250 AS. It is the parent language of the Moigthe languages of Erechóreb and thus of Classical Yophenthean and by this imperial language, the Yophenthean Languages of Asbardian, Ambrasian, Ambrinquan, Nymenthonese, Glaikish, and Corundian. The relationship between Myernian and Rhaunvish is uncertain, but suspected to be lateral. Rhaunvish is remembered through divination and a few stone inscriptions

After the exodus of the Goldenlings to Erechóreb, the Durrhaunvish language arose from Rhaunvish in the valley after which it is named. Durrhaunvish lost much of the distinction between pietific and impietific terms and also lost most of the tempomutation. Other Moigthe languages also lost pietificity, tempomutation, and the inflections reduced from nominative, genitive, dative, and accusative cases, to nominative and oblique. Durrhaunvish persisted from about 250 AS to about 625 AI (about 875 years) until it succumbed to its sibling language, Classical Yophenthean. In this same region, Classical Yophenthean became a vulgate language and then the languages known as Asbardian and Ambrasian, respectively.
