Top 10 Invented Languages

Inventing a language from scratch might seem like an odd way to spend your time, but there are good reasons to do it. People create languages for scientific, cultural and artistic purposes: to test theories about how the brain works, to help people communicate, to 'improve' existing languages, or because they just need a new language for a book they're writing.

Here are some of the best examples of invented languages.

Aren't all languages invented?

You could say that languages have evolved naturally instead of being invented.

But I agree. Maybe invented languages should be called planned or constructed languages.

I wouldn't agree that all languages are invented. With an invented language a person or some sort of committee started with a blank sheet of paper. No "natural" language began like thanks.
