De Latino sine Flexione; Principio de Permanentia by Giuseppe Peano
"De Latino sine Flexione; Principio de Permanentia" by Giuseppe Peano is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book proposes a simplified and uninflected form of the Latin language as an international auxiliary language. It emphasizes the need for an accessible lingua franca that retains the essence of Latin while stripping away its grammatical complexities, making it easier for global communication. In the book, Peano systematically outlines his ideas
for a simplified version of Latin, focusing on eliminating the inflections commonly associated with Latin nouns and verbs. He introduces rules for grammatical simplification, advocating for a structure that eradicates unnecessary cases, genders, and conjugations while still preserving the clarity and precision of expression. Peano also provides an exploration of the history and evolution of languages that have influenced his proposal, examining the role of Latin in science and commerce, and citing previous attempts to create an international language. By presenting logical arguments and linguistic examples, Peano aims to establish "De Latino sine Flexione" as a practical tool for international discourse and cooperation.
