'''Novbasa''' (formerly known as '''Ardlang''') is a [[constructed language|constructed worldlang]] created by | '''Novbasa''' (formerly known as '''Ardlang''') is a [[constructed language|constructed worldlang]] created by user Fox Saint-Just in 2013. Its name is composed by the words ''nov'' ("new") and ''basa'' ("language"). Its main features are a regular phonetic inventory, a strict SVO sentence order and a vocabulary that aims to defy Eurocentrism without renouncing to widely known translations. While its main inspiration is Lingwa de Planeta, Novbasa has some traits in common with Sambahsa, like the use of proto-languages and a rather wide vocabulary base. | ||
The main linguistic influences of Novbasa are Indo-European languages, Chinese (from which most of the isolating grammar is derived) and Arabic, but its [[A posteriori (languages)|a posteriori]] vocabulary is built considering many other languages, including Austronesian languages, Altaic languages, Swahili, Basque and Nahuatl. This approach is remarked by Novbasa's motto ''Ab hol dunya, pro hol dunya'' ("From the whole world, for the whole world"). | The main linguistic influences of Novbasa are Indo-European languages, Chinese (from which most of the isolating grammar is derived) and Arabic, but its [[A posteriori (languages)|a posteriori]] vocabulary is built considering many other languages, including Austronesian languages, Altaic languages, Swahili, Basque and Nahuatl.
