Logical languages are meant to allow (or enforce) unambiguous statements.  They are typically based on [[predicate logic]] but can also be based on any system of formal [[logic]].  The two best-known logical languages are the predicate languages [[Loglan]] and its successor [[Lojban]]. They both aim to eliminate [[syntactical ambiguity]] and reduce [[semantic ambiguity]] to a minimum.  In particular, the [[lojban grammar|grammar of Lojban]] is carefully engineered to express such predicate logic in an unambiguous manner.
