Cyrillic name edit

In the sample words table the name Slovianski is transliterated as "Словянски". Is it correct? Shouldn't it be "Словиански"? Hellerick (talk) 15:34, 29 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Not really. 'я' corresponds both to 'ia' or 'ja' in Cyrillic. 'иа' and 'ия' correspond to 'ija'.

Then, shouldn't it be shown in the table in the alphabet section? Hellerick (talk) 11:09, 6 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
Hiya Hellerick! Well, the thing is that back in 2006 when Slovianski was conceived, we used i as a j/palataliser after a consonant and before a vowel. Later we changed that to j: ljubiti instead of liubiti. Thing is only, by that time the language had already acquired some notability under the name "Slovianski", and so we decided not to leave it. I think the Cyrillic form "Словиански" may have been the result of that. But it simply means "Slavic", and therefore "Словянски" is correct. It's probably due to Slovianski's flexible nature that it is known in various name variants: Словиански, Словянски, Словјански, Словијански.

Formatting edit

In the "Users" section on the main template, there are two spaces between "hundreds" and "2012". Does anyone know how to fix this?--Frglz (talk) 23:53, 10 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Text to Speech Voice edit

There is need for Text to Speech Voice link in the article, or project who wants to create one. Just as purpose of wikipedia is to facilitate and promote expansion of knowledge and science and literature.

Family: Linguistic and Utilitaristic edit

Please note Talk:Latino_sine_flexione#Family:_Linguistic_and_Utilitaristic. Also note the paragraph about whether Interslavic really is a "Zonal language" or a "full" International Auxiliary language. --217.224.132.211 (talk) 12:50, 21 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Intelligibility edit

It would be good to add the percentage of intelligibility of Interslavic by native speakers of various Slavic languages. On YouTube videos in Interslavic, I've seen comments from people from places like Bosnia, Russia, and Poland saying that they could understand between 95% and 99% of what was spoken (but could make sense of the spoken version of the language better than the written one). 173.88.246.138 (talk) 06:16, 27 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Schematic vs naturalistic edit

"Its main focus lies on instant understandability rather than easy learning, a balance typical for naturalistic (as opposed to schematic) languages."

The problem is that the web page cited as a source for this generalisation cites, in turn, another Wikipedia article for the definitions of schematic vs natualistic. In the meantime, however, Wikipedia no longer defines "schematic languages" in the way the web page uses. The current definitions in International auxiliary language claim that schematic languages are mixtures between a posterior and a priori languages in that they "have some a priori qualities" in that some of their morphemes or derivational devices are invented. A priori languages are said to be regular and simple, but it is not asserted that a posteriori ones aren't. These definitions aren't sourced to anything, I don't know whether the earlier ones were either. Personally, I would object to the suggestion that naturalistic languages aren't regular and simplified (Interlingua is supposed to be a typical naturalistic Romance auxlang, and yet it eliminates gender and verb agreement), or that ease of learning precludes ease of understanding. This is an excuse by the creators of Interslavic to create a language that retains all the complexities of most Slavic languages in order to make it sound more familiar - the claim that it wouldn't even be understandable otherwise is highly dubious. --178.249.169.67 (talk) 09:30, 13 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Typo report ľ => ĺ edit

I think that ľ is a typo for ĺ in this line > The consonants ľ, ń, ŕ, ť, ď, ś and ź are... in the extended alphabet section
