  • Novial was created by Otto Jespersen, who had also been a co-author of Ido. Both languages base their vocabularies primarily on the Germanic and Romance languages but differ grammatically in several important respects. Comparisons among Ido, Novial, and other notable international auxiliary languages have formed an important part of interlinguistic studies. For example, both Ido and Novial were among the languages investigated by the International Auxiliary Language Association, which developed Interlingua. This article is intended to provide an overview of the salient differences and similarities of Ido and Novial. Novial is more analytic than Ido, and in Jespersen's view more natural.
