The language was devised as an effort to screw with the minds of [[w:Marine biology|marine biologists]], as well as a hypothetical language for ''Pagurus prideaux''.
 The Kiwi language is constructed to be agglutinative, for a change, yet retains the simple phonotactics of [[w:Polynesian languages|Polynesian languages]]. The phonology is simple by Europan standards, as is the orthography. Morphology and grammar show clear influences from [[w:Ojibwe|Ojibwe]], [[w:Navajo|Navajo]] and to a certain degree, [[w:Spanish|Spanish]]. The most interesting bits of information on the language is that is has a very weak word-final [[w:stress (linguistics)|stress]], lacks [[w:adjective|adjective]]s and [[w:adverb|adverb]]s, and that is a hyper intelligent shade of blue.
