I haven't been following this thread that closely, so maybe this has already
been mentioned: Heinlein had a futuristic English in "The Moon is a Harsh
Mistress". I remember there was a bit of Russian -- they said "nyet"
instead
of "no" -- and probably some other things. The English was a bit tweaked
too,
but not very much.
