| Editorial | Gladilatian lacks verbs, with every sentence being a copula, and each conjunction consists of one word before the last conjunct and another before each of the other conjuncts. Syntax is strict. Vocabulary is a priori. The site has a dictionary of 300 words, a grammar, sample texts and a unique script. |

| Uniqueness | Each conjunction consists of one word before the last conjunct and another before each of the other conjuncts. I have not seen this anywhere else, although I wasn't trying for uniqueness when I designed that part of the language. |
