Lojban is a constructed (human-made) language constructed by the Logical Language Group in 1987. Its unambiguous structure makes it an effective language for people from different cultures to speak to each other without misunderstanding each other's meaning. For example, foreign language speakers often get lost in the world of idioms, and Lojban's structure doesn't count on such creative devices. Varsity Tutors can help you find Lojban tutoring that can help you discover its many uses.
There are a variety of reasons students might want to learn Lojban, to use it for various applications, including:
- As a spoken language in both voice and text
- As a literary and cultural language
- As a means of creativity - without use of devices such as idiom and direct metaphor, a writer can develop their creativity with using direct language
- As a programming language
- As a way to speak about logic
Lojban tutoring can help you not just with the language itself, but with learning the history. For instance, in the 1950s, the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis of linguistic relativity, that is the assumption that the language a person speaks either determines or influences their thoughts, opinions, and decisions. They created a language called Loglan to test this out. The Logical Language Group sought to fulfill the purpose of Loglan by making it easier to use and more freely available, and Lojban is the result. The full name of the language is actually, "Lojban: A Realization of Loglan."
