glosaariaid

Glosaariaid is a constructed language created by Wendy Ashby. It is based on Glosa, an international auxiliary language itself. Glosaariaid aims to be a simplified version of Glosa, making it easier to learn and use. The vocabulary of Glosaariaid is derived from Glosa, which in turn draws from a wide range of languages, primarily Indo-European ones.

The grammar of Glosaariaid is intentionally minimalistic. It seeks to reduce the complexities found in many natural languages, such as irregular verbs, complex declensions, and gendered nouns. The goal is to create a language that is logical and regular, facilitating quicker acquisition for speakers of diverse linguistic backgrounds. Ashby developed Glosaariaid as a personal project, intending it for a specific community of speakers who find Glosa to be too complex.

While Glosaariaid shares its roots with Glosa, it diverges in its simplification efforts. This results in a smaller vocabulary and a more streamlined grammatical structure. The intended use cases for Glosaariaid are similar to other constructed languages, such as international communication, linguistic experimentation, and as a potential tool for cognitive studies. It is not as widely known or used as its parent language, Glosa, but it represents an effort to create an even more accessible international auxiliary language.
