The Letanis Language

by Thomas Heller

Letanis, pronounced [ˈletanis], is a constructed (engineered) language with self-segregating morphology, minimalist syntax, and topological lexicon structure.

More information about Letanis can be found here:

Note that I created Letanis mainly for experimentation rather than actual use as an IAL, to see how far syntax could be reduced while still remaining usable. The idea of a topological lexicon structure to make learning the vocabulary easier is certainly worthwhile, but it must also be noted that for more specific concepts, i.e. longer words, the topology becomes quite arbitrary.
