Used; Very Good "There is a linguistic theory--known as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis--that the structure of a human language sets limits on the thinking of those who speak it... if this hypothesis is correct, then a language that could lift those constraints, by reducing them to a minimum, ought thereby to release its speakers' minds from their ancient linguistic bonds,... Loglan is a language designed to test this hypothesis. It was originally developed in the 1950s" Loglan Inst., 2007
