The two main academic languages of Technoquintlan are:
* Ntzog Nlab (pure mathematicians, physicists, programmers, essentially Future Hlou)
* Wug Nlab (pure mathematicians, physicists, programmers, essentially Future Hlou)
* Akademiesprache (applied mathematicians, chemists, biologists, other applied fields, essentially Germano-Greek)
* Akademiesprache (applied mathematicians, chemists, biologists, other applied fields, essentially Germano-Greek)


They were created in the period between fT 2400-2550 (approx. Earth 2100-2250) and they were somehow adopted as lingua francas within the academic community. An experiment was created to attempt to have a child with Ntzog Nlab as his native language. Sadly the experiment didn't work and he learned Hlou instead. However, there are many Akademiesprache native speakers in Kardän, Neu-Europa.

The exact reason why I am uninterested in creating a priori languages is because that they are just that. A priori. A word could mean absolutely anything in an a priori conlang. If you take the same gibberish passage, it can mean two completely different things, in two completely different a priori 'languages', even if they have the same phonology and syntax. With a posteriori you at least have a base (or multiple bases) for your language. Mathematical/philosophical languages are an exception for me. In my mind, they are 'a posteriori' in some sense - the 'words' are based off some mathematical system!

==Talma-Zlïkezhẅẅs-Clofabolocin-Spoobland hypothesis==
Same as Talma-Spoobland, except that the Zlïke were trading with the Clofabians in addition to the Hlou, and that the ẅ letter, which is completely redundant in Zlïke, was chosen because of its resemblance to a spoob (due to Hlou-Zlïke trading and Gloobic Zlïkezhẅẅs)
==Earth#Spoob==
'''Premise:'''
: Schngellstein: ...Anyway, I just want to hear your comments on my conworld called Earth.
: Plu: Remove IE.
: Schngellstein: ...Why? I spent years working on IE! YEARS! I COULD HAVE MADE IT THE ONLY LANGUAGE FAMILY OF EARTH BUT LISTEN, LISTEN, YOU FOOLS...
: (Prafin tries to calm Schngellstein down.)
: Prafin: Yeah, Plu's right. Remove IE.
: Schngellstein: YOU ARE ALL STUPID! (insert incoherent ranting)
: Plu: (shouting) THE MAJOR LANGUAGES OF EARTH SHOULD BE HMONG, SWAHILI, AND ARABIC.
: Prafin: Plu, you forgot Hebrew and Aramaic. Were you writing notes?
: Plu: I'm sorry, I was too focused on this...
: (Plu hands a piece of paper to Schngellstein. He reads the paper out loud.)
: Schngellstein: Hmong... Europe... Asia... Wait, that's just Tricin all over again! You can't just copy our world and make it mine!
: Plu: But it worked for us here in Tricin, it will work on Earth too.
==Ideas for Hlou-Shum==
* DO NOT USE SPOOB ORTHOGRAPHIES
* Use generalized IE sound change laws for sound changes, maybe some non-Hlouic languages have prenasalized fricatives (reverse Grimm)
* Sino-Tibetan sound changes too?
* Schlaub's old -l tone was glottal descending
* Gloob has so many tones because of Schlaub + Clooa, have irregular system of rimes
* Just call the Hlou-Shum land Mpfa Wieb (old Tricin reference) (Wieb = North?)
* Reverse-engineer PHS
* Liaic multisyllables
* Hlou-Shum language that resolves its tons of homophones with compounding like Mandarin

May this ditoren be heard
See the enin, beautiful bird
Our saviour, Tdap Ativan,
Will drive out the arrogant clan

They're our brothers in our god Vans
But you Naengites, flee from our land
Your Wen Damea's made out of sand

===Phonological rules===
* Any word that ends with a consonant is always pronounced appended with an /ɨ/. All words alternate consonants and vowels, starting with a consonant.
* No word can start with +, ×, ), or ’ (so no starting with any of /t l h n/).
* No word can end with +, ×, or ( (so no ending with any of /t l k e o ɛ/).
* The rule of kɛhɔ (this string is not allowed). The total sum of k and ɛ phonemes is the same as the sum of h and ɔ phonemes. Any k or ɛ phoneme must always appear before any h or ɔ phoneme chronologically.
