Glosa 1000

Gary R Miller (Gary R Miller <justi.miller@...>) on September 16, 2003

Panto karo Glosa-pe:

Glosa 1000 was never just 1000 words. The Idea of Glosa 1000 also included all taxonomical names of plants and animals, all names of elements in the periodic table, all names of countries in their own language, and possibly any other words derived from Latin and Greek scientific or technical terms. This gave Glosa a very rich vocabulary from the start.

The idea of Glosa 1000 was to keep vocabulary small and regular. For the easiest communication, one would have to add to the list when necessary or perhaps when going beyond the realm of simple communication into the artistic.

I hope that all Glosists will keep Glosa 1000 in mind, not as a limitation but as an instrument to keep international communication simple enough for a child to learn. It should be the sun around which all planets turn.


Glosa 1000 pa zero-kron habe simpli 1000 verba. Un idea de Glosa 1000 pa inklude: panto taxo-nomi nomina de fito e zoa, panto elementa de periodi tabula, panto nomina de natio per auto lingua, e posi ali hetero verba; qi habe origi ex Latina e Helena skience alo tekno nomina. U-ci pa dona a Glosa u pluto verba-fa ex proto-kron.

U-la idea de Glosa 1000 pa es tena pusi e ge-krati u verba-fa. Pro maxi facili komunika, pe fu debi adi a u-la lista kron nece alo posi kron ki ultra un area de simpli kominuka ad arti.

Mi spe; panto Glosa-pe fu tena Glosa 1000 in memo ne homo limita sed homo instrumenta; qi fu tena internatio komunika ta simpli; un infanti posi logi id. Id debi es un heli; cirka qi panto planeta du ki.
