Rejistanian is a constructed language and was designed by "Rejistania" after learning about language in philosophy class.
Description
Rejistanian is an auxiliary language for the Nation Rejistania in NationStates.net.
Uniqueness
Rejistanian sentences rely much more than most RL-languages on the verb and its conjugations. Also it might be one of the few languages on this site which has a translation for: "This was no goal! He was offside!" (jilih'aru'ta xkora! mi'la'mer'resky!)
Design principles
Be different from indo-Europpean languages, it was supposed to easy learnable for the Rejistanis, therefore has an easy word-construction system, the grammar was supposed to be easy without major traps and weirdnesses. The language has no irregular forms.
Language sources
Esperanto, Vietnamese, French (French has 5 forms of comparism, the rejistanian 10 were inspired by that)
Interest of others
