Krakoan Language
On the sovereign nation of Krakoa, Cypher created the Krakoan language to be mutantdom's first autochthonous language, and a local telepath would imprint the language in the mind of each newly arrived mutant.[1]
This is a manufactured language and not the native language of Krakoa itself. Only Cypher can understand the living island.[1]
