The '''Telap''' were a [[xenos]] species that developed an advanced civilization at least a million years before [[M32]], but were exterminated well before then (possibly during the [[Great Crusade]]). Members of the Telap species had two tongues, each of which was longer and more prehensile than a [[human]]'s. As a result, their language, '''Telapiye''', could not be completely re-created by a human tongue.{{Fn|1}}
Some of the books produced by the long-extinct species came into the possession of the [[Thousand Sons]] [[Space Marine Legion]], and at least one survived the [[Burning of Prospero]]. [[Ahmuz Temekh]] was fluent in the language, though even his enhanced physiology could not produce the full range of its sounds.{{Fn|1}}
