Ah, yes, because what the world *really* needs is yet another #app to teach you how to communicate with fewer words than a toddler. 🙄📱 Embrace the art of expressing your #existential #dread with a vocabulary of 120 words or less—because who needs nuance when you can just grunt in #Toki #Pona and call it "simplicity"? 🤦♂️

Do you like to make a hard language, with strange phonology, complicated grammar like Ithkuil, or are you for simplicity like Toki Pona? Why?

To create Toki Pona review we checked Tokipona.org reputation at lots of sites, including Siteadvisor and MyWOT. We found that Tokipona is safe for children and does not look fraudulent. We would describe it as legit.
Sonja Lang keeps it trustworthy. Please be warned that to describe security status of Tokipona.org we use data openly available on the Web, thus we cannot guarantee that no scam sites might have been mistakenly considered legit and no fraud or PC issues may occur in this regard. But usually the crowdsourced data we have is pretty accurate. Let's see it below.
Specifically, I think the ideal auxlang would be only a little more complex than Toki Pona in its grammar, and have a basic root vocabulary only a few times larger than TP.

Euphony is related to ease of pronunciation and thus ease of learning for people whose native
languages have relatively small phoneme inventories and restrictive syllable forms. Your idea of 20 consonants and 5 vowels for LangX is fairly good, but I think Konya's 11 consonants and 5 vowels, or Toki Pona's 9 consonants and 5 vowels, would be better still. (I'm not sure I follow your reasoning behind having a second-level phonology with 53 phonemes, though. Is that
supposed to be just for representing foreign names
in LangX?)

If you design the language to be extremely expressive and flexible, giving speakers many possible ways of saying things and expressing nuances, either by having a large root vocabulary with fine shades of meaning
distinguished by different words (Interlingua, Classical Yiklamu),
or by offering many grammatical means of expressing distinctions (Esperanto, Volapuk, Ithkuil), then you can't simultaneously maximize ease of learning.
On the other hand, if you maximize ease of learning via simplicity of grammar and smallness of root vocabulary (as in Toki Pona and to a lesser extent Vorlin) you wind up with a language less flexible and expressive than, say, Esperanto.

My mistake was assuming you
would be familiar with conlangs so well-known and widely admired/excoriated as Ithkuil and Toki Pona.
I was talking about trade-offs in the design of any conlang -- auxlang or artlang or loglang.
Ithkuil maximizes efficiency, expressing a great deal of meaning with very short words and sentences.
Toki Pona maximizes simplicity of grammar, ease of learning and use, and incidentally attains a high degree of euphony.
My response above was questioning whether it was even possible to maximize both these qualities at the same time in the same language (natural or constructed).

Simplicity in language
Some constructed languages have taken the beauty of simplicity as a design goal. For example, Toki Pona has only 118 words.

Toki Pona
Toki Pona is "the simple language of good".
I first came across it a couple of years ago, but it keeps popping back into my mind, so I though I would share it. Toki Pona is a simple spoken language. It is so simple infact that you can become fluient in about a month. I first found it when I was looking for a simple spoken language to that I could teach a computer, but thats another story. There are user groups, and lessons,etc.
Check it out!

@Estelwen ben tu peux dire ce que tu veux / ressens... pour ma part je me suis jamais trouvé merveilleux :) et ton avis sur toi même vaut bien plein de toots et ton extrait était très parlant. Partager ce que nous voulons de nos expériences et nos ressentis est l'essence même de ce réseau. Sorry si mon toot était pas forcément à propos. #pona
@zyabin101 there is only 120 words ... it is very simple to learn it :) but you must understand that it is a game. It is very difficult to have a very deep discussion with this language. It is not its purpose.
