Have you seen Interlingua? The idea behind it is to build a sort of simplified Romance language. It retains only features that occur in all of its control languages, so you do get some verb marking but nothing really out there grammatically. And it retains impressive word-building powers. It reads a bit like Latinized Spanish.

I have found it easier to pick up than Lojban, but I haven't been able to maintain my interest.
- throwaway7645 10y agoI've heard of it, but haven't looked into it in detail as Esperanto seemed good enough and is the most popular of the aux languages. I've played with Lojban, but honestly think it is just too hard for a human to be good with. It and its successor have been around in some part for decades, and yet nobody can really speak it fluently (I've heard less than 10 people). I really like the idea...just not sure about the implementation.
