Low Gothic is composed of not only one, but millions of other dialects of the language originally derived from High Gothic. Low Gothic is the common person's everyday spoken and written language and it is represented for our purposes as twenty-first century English in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, though in fact it would be utterly unintelligible to English-speakers after tens of thousands of Terran years of linguistic drift and hybridisation with other languages. Low Gothic was derived over many Terran millennia from the prior common language used by the Human interstellar civilisation that existed during the Dark Age of Technology and on Terra at the time of the Great Crusade in the late 30th Millennium that is now known as High Gothic. Low Gothic, also called Imperial Gothic or simply Gothic, is the "official" common language of most of the myriad trillions of Human beings in the Imperium of Man, the tongue of its adepts and Terra.
