Ekspreso

From UniLang Wiki

Ekspreso (eso) is a constructed language. The name derives from the Latin word expressus ("expressed"), the past participle of exprimere (literally "to squeeze out"), from ex-, "out of, from," + premere, "to press".

Ekspreso: The "language for people in a hurry" (in Ekspreso, la lingua pro la persona in haste). It was invented by Jay Bowks, a World Language teacher from New Hampshire, in 1996, after discussions on the Axlang email list.
