Lingua Franca Nova

What does /lang/ think of it?

I thought "...why?"

Constructed languages are a little pointless.

Their flag is a bit gay

I like the "useful phrases" section. When are you ever going to need these phrases?

WHEN YOU MEET ONE OF THE TWO PEOPLE THAT SPEAK IT YOU DUMMY

The original Lingua Franca did have its place, otherwise it wouldn't have developed.
And personally, I think it would be a good idea to teach a constructed language like Ido or so in all EU countries, which could be used as a starting point to learn the natural languages it borrows vocabulary from, as the language of the European internet and for official stuff.
But making a language that only caters to romance language speakers, in this day and age? I agree, pretty much pointless.

How pretentious can you get, naming your shitty constructed language after the term lingua franca...

in LFN, nova is a negator

lingua franca nova basically means "nobody speaks this"

Bullshit

i'd rather use latin again. it has the unbeatable advantage of understanding the old classics and pushing your education over 9000
