Examples of famous a priori languages include [[Ro]], [[Solresol]], [[Mirad]], [[Klingon]], and [[Na'vi]]. By contrast, a posteriori languages are ones whose vocabulary is based on existing languages, either as a variation of one language (e.g., [[Latino sine flexione]]) or as a mixture of various languages.

Some a priori languages are designed to be international auxiliary languages that remove what could be considered an unfair learning advantage for native speakers of a source language that would otherwise exist for a posteriori languages. Some a priori languages try to categorize their vocabulary, either to express an underlying philosophy or to make it easier to recognize new vocabulary. These are also known as [[Philosophical language|philosophical or taxonomic languages.]]
