Abstract: This paper explores the linguistic features of fantasy and mythological literature, focusing on invented languages, archaic diction, poetic structures, and mythological intertextuality. Through an analysis of works by J.R.R. Tolkien, J.K.. Rowling, and Neil Gaiman, the study highlights how language shapes world-building and narrative depth. It examines the role of constructed languages (conlangs), mythological symbolism, and the blending of reality with imagination. The findings emphasize language as a key element in fantasy storytelling, enhancing reader immersion and engagement.
