runbau (in Lojban) or conlang (short form for constructed language) is a human language which is not natural language.
Classification
Conlangs are sometimes divided into three groups:
- artlangs, those devised for artistic purposes -- either per se, or for use in fiction.
Really for artistic purposes? Its purpose seems to have been IAL, the "esthetic" side - the musical version -- was partly practical (tone carries farther than words and is easier to pick out in a noisy environment) and partly either a bad joke or a misunderstanding of the claim that music is the universal language (which is clearly false even when rightly understood).
— pc
- Klingon
- Tolkien languages, which have given tengwar orthography to Lojban
- Láadan
- Glaugnea
- Solresol
- toki pona and toki pona enhanced
- engelangs (engineered languages), those devised according to some sort of objective principles; loglangs are engelangs based on predicate logic.
- Lojban is one of the most known. Voynichese Lojbanic is a dialect of it used in mediaeval Italy.
- Nalnuantir is an engelang the grammar of which is based on LIFO-stack.
- auxlangs, those devised principally as IALs
- a posteriori
- Ygyde
- Unish
- Inoffensish
- a priori
These categories are of course overlapping.
