Re: What to Call Non-Conlangers

I like Muke's "nonlanger".  Natlanger, while a sensible construction,
still feels too active to me.  Natlanging implies the creation of
natlangs, which makes no sense.  A nonlanger, on the other hand,
simply doesn't bother with langs at all.

On second thought, a natlanger could be someone who shows great
interest in natlangs and learns several of them.  A distant cousin
of the conlanger, so to speak.
