The idea of "what makes sense in real life must obviously also be true in the game in some form, even if we don't receive official confirmation of it from the lore team" is often debated in various RP communities, this one included. What's going on in this thread is no different.

The logical part of my brain certainly leaves room for multiple languages being spoken in present-day Hydaelyn. Because that's what simply makes sense. Especially when we don't know how present-day Thavnairians (or Meracydians, provided there's any left) speak, and we won't know until they either send us an NPC delivering such information or allow our characters to go there. But the part of me that is very conservative about jumping the gun doesn't want to get too presumptuous until I see better, distinct examples.

In conclusion... Everyone will respectfully have to agree to disagree at this point. Some people want to follow IRL logic, some want to wait and see what lore reveals. As I've said in my last two posts, ultimately, you adhere to whatever best suits your tastes. I think as long as you aren't pushy and (no pun intended) communicate your intent well enough, you'll be fine either way.
