vejktoro:Wellceigered:So.qwertz:good point, HTML is probably THE most widely spread 'language' ever at the moment.ceigered:-widely spread: yes
HTML
Can you guys speak with one another in HTML?
Maybe JavaScript/ActionScript would be better for everyday communication?
But this makes me want to create a conlang based off of HTML, despite the fact it will probably be the nerdiest conlang ever.
Heck, me just talking about this is nerdy...
And no I am not seriously considering backing JavaScript as an IAL...

SuperMarc92:French:Well, what exactly is "pronounce like spelling"? Pronounciation is MUCH easier in French than in English, where you have to learn it for every word. (For example, I once pronounced "reliable" "re-li-e-bl" instead of "ri-laj-bl") While in French, if you know the rules, you can always pronounce a written word even if you never heard of it before. (So far - in 2,5 years of learning French - the only words I know of that don't seem to follow the rules are "femme" and "suspense")
Pronounce like spelling: NO
So I think this can well be set to YES.

vejktoro:100 rem Shouldn`t this be BASIC?I know we've started a discussion about programming languages, right when I've completely forgotten all my Actionscript! (although I must say thank you because I've remembered that I have to revise my AS)
110 PRINT "Oh no!"
120 rem Ceigered, what have we done?
130 GOTO 110
And is it just me or did you just create a perpetual loop of 'oh no!'?
All this random computer related talk is reminding me of some article (or maybe a sentence on Wikipedia) about the implications of Esperanto with computer programming or something like that. So maybe it should be asked if an easy language would be easy for a computer too? I mean, given the lack of irregularities and simple grammar, Esperanto should be simple and quick to process by a computer when compared to something like German or French. However pronunciation would be troublesome, as Esperanto has stress (therefore word boundaries etc have to be considered).
Actually, Chinese is probably one of the easier languages for a computer to pronounce:

Pity that isn't the same for most humans too.

- ville (vile), fille (fiye)
- aquarium (akouariom)
- temps (tan), champs (chan)...
- baptiser (batizé)
- the 's' a the end of plural words aren't pronounced and the a lot of words are silent
- mot (mo)
- er, ai = é (or è
)- etc...

darkweasel:The word "oiseau" [ŭazo] (bird) in french is funny because none of its letters o-i-s-e-a-u are pronunced as in the alphabet.SuperMarc92:French:Well, what exactly is "pronounce like spelling"?
