New langauge

I shall call this language Humuhumunukunukukuapua'an. The language will be composed entirely of the letters H, U, N, K, A, P, and '. Obviously there would be some changes to normal language to accommodate the reduction of letters, but I think that the world could get used to it. First of all, in order to reduce word redundancy, the language would have to excise several unimportant words and concepts. This would eliminate things like football, cheap beer, and marketing majors. The language would only contains words associated with property, subsitence commerce, and humus. The verb to be would be humu. There would be no conjugation. Example Humuhumunukunukuapua'a' humu. ' denotes plural. This means the humus are. Likewise you would see Humuhumunukunukuapua'a humu - the humu is.

By intentionally factoring out unnecessary conventions, people will not be able to talk about then, and therefore, these things will simply cease to exist.

Therefore, I could say, Humuhumunukunukuapua'a humu pua'a - The humu is cool.

But I could not say the marketing major is cool as there is no word for marketing major. But this will lead to the decline of the major marketing, and therefore the need to describe it will be removed.

I think this would make the world more efficient. Or actually... Nuku humu pua'a - Everything is good(literally cool).
