Uniqueness

This language project is abandoned now.

Arovën means "language of thought" and is intended as a medium for clear, precise translation of thoughts from one mind to another. It is also a "logical", that is, syntactically unambiguous language, which does not mean that it imposes logic upon the speaker; a statement may be as "logical" or as "fuzzy" as the thought form it is meant to communicate. It might also fit well into your 'philosophical' category, were it not for the condition that it be an IAL. A life-long project (got serious about it ~5 years ago). The site contains a grammar and sample texts.

Interest of others

A number of people are learning it, because it seems like a fun challenge, I think -- there are of course no practical reasons to learn a non-IAL constructed language!

Even author doesn't support this language.
