bac is a personal language and was designed by Matthew Butt.


Language sources

Scots Gaelic, Arabic, Chinese, Ancient Greek, Sanskrit.

Design principles

Logical (if not simple) phonology. Multiple derivational rules with hyperproductive roots and very distant meanings being reached very rapidly (e.g., |selb| "red", |esb| "heart"). Unusual syntactic rules which nevertheless should produce sentences understandable with a small level of knowledge

Interest of others

Interaction on the [ http://www.langmaker.com/db/rsc_conlang.htm CONLANG] list has produced some feedback.
