Yoku, also known as Old Yoku,[1] Old Yokudan,[2] and Old Redguard,[3] was the language of the ancient peoples of the continent of Yokuda.[1] Yokudan contact with the natives of Tamriel such as Nedes, Bretons and Colovians led to their complete assimilation and integration due to the need for foreign commerce and the ratification of treaties.[1] Despite this, the language was not completely forgotten and was still rarely used.[4][5]
