What do we call a formal language in Lojban? It's a set of strings made
of letters of some alphabet, often described by a formal grammar.
Although many formal languages are used to express meaning, some, such
as the MIU system, are mere mathematical objects. So if a formal
language is any kind of bangu, it has to be a zilbau.

Something involving lerfu and ciste?
