xuxuxi - Conlang Profile   Advanced
Language Namexuxuxi
Language AuthorJohn Cowan
SiteNA
Broken LinkNo
Site LanguageEnglish
Language Typeinternational auxiliary language
UniquenessThe first IAL designed using WordNet.
Language SourcesClassical Yiklamu
Design PrinciplesMy con-IAL started out as JIAL, for John's IAL. Then I generated all the possible 2- and 3-syllable words (for content words) and assigned them randomly to the senses in WordNet. (A mistake, I now think, because it means there is no derivational morphology to speak of.) I then weeded senses I considered low-priority out of the result, including the sense "Esperanto", which had been randomly assigned to "xuxuxi". So the name of the language became "xuxuxi".
