What is notable is the inclusion of astronomers and musicians in the group that created Wug Nlab, which could be a kind of revival of the quadrivium. However, they did not have much imagination: they decided to use Plu's ''Wug Bub'' (known here as Quintlanic) as one of its bases.

==Changes from fT 2300 Schlaub==

Wug Nlab is essentially the grammar of ~~Wug Bub~~ with the lexicon of fT 2400 Schlaub. However, Schlaub words were not used as substitutes of Wug Bub grammatical particles.

==Changes from fT 2300 to fT 2400==

===Sound changes===

The following sound and orthographical changes happened:

* z, tz, dz, ntz, ndz (/s̪, ts̪ʰ, ts̪, ⁿts̪ʰ, ⁿdz̪/ -> /θ, tθʰ, tθ, ⁿtθ, ⁿdð/)

This was a result of second-language Hlou learners failing to turn dental fricatives into sibilants.

* ei, au, äu (/əi, əu, əũ/ -> /ai, au, ɔʏ/)

* j (/ʒ/ -> /j/)

* ä (/ã/ -> /æ/)

* ö (/õ/ -> /ø/)

These were a result of a 'literally read' version of the German-based orthography devised by German-Clofabian Hmongophile linguist Otto Hans Arcaschloss Schngellstein, grandson of Shlomo Schngellstein (now changed to Shlomo Kuaishi), and are somewhat similar to the variety of vowels used in Schlaub Glaß.

* schm, schml, schn, schnr -> sp, spl, st, str (/m̥, m̥ˡ, n̥, ɳ̊/ -> /spʰ, spˡʰ, stʰ, sʈʰ/)

This was a result of applying a Gloob sound change to Schlaub, turning voiceless nasals into presibilanted plosives. The Schngellstein orthography was updated to reflect that but not the featural script.

* schl -> lj (/ɬ/ -> /ʎ/)

This was a result of people speaking quickly and as a result turning the lateral fricative into a lateral approximant.

===Grammatical changes===

The head direction changed from head-initial to head-final due to the influence of Earth Mandarin.
