1998 Pop10	Advanced
The most requested language-specific pages from Langmaker.com in December, 1998. 1. Kordron - Kordron is one of the many dialects of Orcish spoken in the Shadow Mountains. Unlike most of Orcish, Kordron has been documented in some detail, due to the findings of Magnold the Cleric. 2. Fith - Fith is the alien language with a LIFO grammar, violating human linguistic universals and incapable of being spoken by a human at a conversational speed. 3. Barsoomian - the language of Edgar Rice Burrough's Mars, as recorded by John Carter. 4. Klingon - the most commercially successful model language. It helped transform the Klingons from cardboard villains in Classic Trek to a fascinating warrior culture. 5. Basic Anglo-Saxon English - A simplification of Ogden's Basic English, but with a vocabulary limited only to Modern English words derived from Anglo-Saxon terms. 6. Afrihili, Eurolengo, Frater, and Tutonish - Afrihili: an African IAL; Eurolengo: the language for Europe; Frater: an IAL from Vietnam; Tutonish: an Anglo-German Union Tongue. (All on one web page, which is why they are counted together.) 7. Simpenga - Simpenga is pronounced /sim-PEN-ga/ and is a contraction of Simpela Engelisa, "Simple English." Simpenga is based on a phonetically simplified English. 8. Folkspraak - The primary objective of Folkspraak is for a speaker of a Germanic language to be able to comfortably read the language with a high level of understanding within a week and to be able to write in the language within a month. 9. Quenya - the most beautiful sounding model language, spoken by one of the most compelling fictional races ever portrayed (Elves). 10. Lojban - the most professional and thought-provoking of the modern logical languages, with a fascinating methodology for its original word derivation.
