Kernu is Brithenig's sister language and a lovely piece of work in its own
right. The Celtic-Romance family also includes Brzhoneg, designed by
Frank Valoczy and Breathanach, a Goidelic romance language designed by
Geoff King. Breathanach has its own webpage.
Frank also has a page on the net for Neo-Dalmatian. Although it's
incomplete it has me chewing at the furniture everytime I look at it.
It's a "Gee, I wish I thought of that language" language. Yes, it's one I
would like to play with.
Philip Jonson admitted to a romance language he had created, but he hasn't
let on to anymore than its name.
That's all the Romance languages that I can think offhand that are active
on this list.
