=== Food === | |||
The Edo do not tend to eat meat. Eating meat is not forbidden, but it is also not typical in their culture to do so. The Edo used to eat meat in their past, but it fell out of favour after eating meat regularly was shown to be unhealthy for them. Plant food is sufficient to sustain them.<ref name="You’ll never stop worrying about your family" /> | The Edo do not tend to eat meat.

=== Language === | |||
The Edo speak multiple languages or dialects collectively referred to as the Rubicun Edo languages or simply Edo languages. These languages share a translingual writing system, which is based on a shared syllabary. Each glyph typically represents a consonant, a vowel, and a possible ending depending on its location in a word and other factors. The syllable glyphs have an order similar to alphabetic order in the Latin alphabets. For example, ''va'' is the fifth glyph in this syllabic order.<ref name="Linian vajos ren, jialon res">[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/Q_AcRthh46Q/ Linian vajos ren, jialon res], LtJG Jovenan, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240010.29</ref> | |||
Somian is one of the dialects or languages spoken by the Edo in an area on Rubicun III. It is written using the common Edo writing system. The word order in Somian is OVS, i.e. object-verb-subject, meaning that in a typical sentence, object precedes the verb, and the subject is in the last place.<ref name="Linian vajos ren, jialon res" /> | |||
