toki pona
The Language of Good
Toki pona is a minimalist constructed language made in 2001 by Canadian linguist and translator, Sonja Lang. The vocabulary of less than 200 words comes from a range of languages, such as Tok Pisin, Finnish, and Acadian French. The phonology consists of just 14 letters common in many languages, so it is simple and flexible for anyone to pronounce.
