Missing language support: lojban #6

Open Pantyhose-X opened 1 year ago

Pantyhose-X commented 1 year ago

What is ? Lojban is a carefully constructed spoken language. It has been built for over 50 years by dozens of workers and hundreds of supporters.

Lojban's grammar is based on simple rules, and its linguistic features are inspired by predicate logic. Lojban allows the expression of nuances in emotion using words called attitudinals, which are like spoken emoticons. ue marks that you're surprised; ba'u marks that you're exaggerating. You can be as vague or detailed as you like when speaking lojban. For example, specifying tense (past, present or future) or number (singular or plural) is optional when they're clear from context. Lojban is machine parsable, so the syntactic structure and validity of a sentence is unambiguous, and can be analyzed using computer tools. There is a live community of speakers expanding the lojban vocabulary day by day.

Hi @Pantyhose-X, apologies that we haven't responded to your request for so long.

I've forwarded your request to the team at DeepL responsible for adding new languages. I can't say when or if DeepL will support Lojban though; there are several other highly-spoken languages that we're working to support.

I'll also move this issue to another project for tracking issues related to the DeepL API in general.
