pidgin lan

A spoken pidgin language used on the Lagrange and cycler stations. Grammar was based on the conventions of Lagrangian Administrative Notation (LAN) while vocabulary borrowed from a variety of languages depending on the demographics of the station, creating a range of dialects.

Like most pidgin languages, it relied heavily on simple, separate words and avoided modifying words to indicate tense, gender, or number, instead stating these characteristics separately.
