Título: An Introduction to Angos
Autor: W. Benjamin Wood
Sinopse: Angos is a constructed universal language created in 2011. It is an a posteriori language, meaning the majority of the vocabulary is borrowed from existing languages. Angos is completely phonetic and regular, and there are no verb forms or noun cases to memorize. A special feature is the distinction between natural and man-made qualities; in fact, the word Angos means "constructed language." The symbol of Angos is the North Star- the immutable figure of navigation among mariners of the ancient world. The lexicon of Angos was designed to be international yet representative of each language's current influence and population; more words are used from larger languages like English, Arabic, and Japanese, compared to smaller languages such as Basque, Gaelic, or Navajo. Angos vocabulary is influenced by: English, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, German, French, Hindi, Persian, Russian, Dutch, Swahili, Polish, Swedish, Portuguese, Korean, Danish, Japanese, Italian, Turkish, Finnish, Greek, Cherokee, Estonian, Czech, Malay, Hungarian, Basque, Gaelic, Hebrew, Navajo, Indonesian, Latin, Icelandic, Armenian, and more.
