langlaise

Langlaise is the name given to a fictional or constructed language that appears in several independent projects and speculative-language discussions. Unlike natural languages, it has no single canonical grammar, vocabulary, or orthography, and there is no official body governing its development.

The name Langlaise appears to be a coinage blending elements associated with 'language' with a Romance-language–like suffix, producing a recognizable but fictional-sounding term used in online conlang communities.

In published works or fan-created materials, Langlaise is typically presented as the language of a fictional people or region. Descriptions of its features vary by creator, and different projects may assign different phonologies, scripts, and grammatical structures.

Some variations incorporate Romance-inspired vocabulary and features, while others emphasize analytic or synthetic grammars, flexible word order, or derivational morphology. The diversity of proposals reflects the absence of an official standard.

Because it is not standardized, Langlaise is best understood as a speculative or artistic construct rather than a real-world language. It is discussed within conlang communities and in works exploring linguistic creativity. See also: constructed language, conlang, language in fiction.
