“Loglan is an isolating language, much like⟳ English. That means that once you’ve learned a word, you don’t have⟳ to worry⟳ about changing its form⟳. Even in English, you have⟳ to remember⟳ to add⟳ ‘-ed’ to a verb to make⟳ it refer⟳ to the past, and ‘-s’ to nouns to make⟳ them plural. In Loglan, you won’t have⟳ to do that. Also, some English verbs and nouns have⟳ irregular forms. There are no irregular Loglan forms.”

“Typically, the people who develop⟳ Romanization systems (or constructed languages like⟳ Loglan or Iqglic they'll want⟳ their alphabet to minimize surprises so that it's easy to learn⟳. So they'll typically choose⟳ letter-sound correspondences from existing languages. Though, they don't necessarily take⟳ all of their letters from the same language (which may be your source of confusion).”
