Dimkulo

Dimkulo (Dimkulo: dimkulo kućt) is an a priori international auxiliary language intended to be a universal second language for the people of the world, with a culturally neutral lexicon and grammar. It is mostly schematic, in which the words have no connection to other languages, but a small part of the lexicon (mostly basic vocabulary) is derived from global etymologids. Its grammar is completely regular and mostly isolating, and as such it is considered an easy language to learn. Dimkulo is written using the Latin script and has a completely phonemic orthography. The word dimkulo translates to "all humans" in English, promoting its cultural neutrality.
