conlang

A conlang, or constructed language, is a language intentionally invented rather than naturally evolved. People create conlangs for various reasons, including artistic expression, enhancing storytelling, or experimenting with language structures. Examples include Tolkien’s Elvish languages or the fictional Klingon from Star Trek. Conlangs can have unique grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, tailored to an author's or creator’s vision. They serve as a tool for world-building and cultural development in fictional settings or as intellectual challenges for language enthusiasts. In essence, a conlang is a consciously designed language crafted for specific creative or practical purposes.
