    Gladilatian is the primary language of the gladifers, the dominant
species in the galaxy.  It's being developed for some fiction I'm writing.
The fiction will not only have a little Gladilatian in it, but some of the
conversation will be Gladilatian automatically translated into a form of
English.  For the latter the reader will only see the English (for the most
part) but when I write it I write it in Glad. first and then translate it.
    I haven't been very active on the list lately, but I've never stopped
lurking, and now that I'm approaching a section of the story where I'll have
to write quite a bit of that translated dialog I'll probably be getting
more involved.
