From lojbab Thu Aug 8 00:25:00 1991 Return-Path: Message-Id: Date: Thu, 8 Aug 91 00:24 EDT From: lojbab (Bob LeChevalier) To: lojban-list Subject: conlang Status: RO For explanation to a lot of people, including Dave , conlang is indeed an acronym for "constructed language" -apparently one that people who invent them are now using to avoid the stigma associated with the term 'artificial' language. Same difference to me, and same stigma. conlang is also the name of another mailing list, independent of lojban-list which a lot of people on lojban-list are also part of. The thread on what is a language started on that list, but I cross-posted my response so as to make the other lojban-list recipients aware of what I think are significant statemnets on my position regarding Lojban - as I then used in response to jimc's comments on lujvo meanings. lojbab
