| Uniqueness | Espanzë - originally intended as French+Spanish language (originally Espançais), but it became a "lost language" when I lost the only sheet of paper on it in a Hebrew book (I found it much later). But I recreated it and gave it a history and culture for a novel that I'm writing. |
|---|
| Language Sources | French, Spanish originally. Now based from as many Romance languages as I can use. |
|---|
| Design Principles | Vocabulary and grammar made to be mostly mutually intelligible with all existing Romance languages. Eventually I'm going to put the language through a bit of a sound change but I'm not ready for that quite yet. |
