grammar

As with other planned languages, the principle of simplicity also applies here. On the other hand, there is sometimes a richer variety of forms, for example there are three genera , whereas Esperanto or Ido do without this. On this point, INTAL tries to avoid the ambiguities known from natural languages ​​when interpreting text; INTAL is based on the natural gender of the object or word.

phonetics

vocabulary

Weferling describes the INTAL variants that result from this as dialects of the international auxiliary language .
