  • Francis Lodwick (or Lodowick) (1619–1694) was a pioneer of a priori languages (what in the seventeenth century was called a 'philosophical language'). He was a merchant of Dutch origin who lived in London. His name appears in A Collection of the Names of the Merchants living in and about the City of London (1677), with the address "Fan-church street". He did not have any higher education, and was admitted as a Fellow to the Royal Society only at the age of 60. Lodowick may have been acquainted with Daniel Defoe. Francis' nephew Charles (1658-1724), Mayor of New York City in 1694, signed at Defoe's marriage as a witness, and Francis may have introduced Defoe to "Roscommon's Academy", a group founded by Lord Roscommon in 1683.
  • フランシス・ロドウィック（Francis LodwickまたはLodowick、1619年 - 1694年）は、アプリオリ言語の創始者である。彼はロンドンに住むオランダ生まれの商人だった。彼の名前は、「ロンドン市についてとロンドン在住商人名集」(A Collection of the Names of the Merchants living in and about the City of London, 1677年)に、「ファン教会通り」という住所とともに現れる。彼はいかなる高等教育も受けず、たった六十歳で王立協会の研究員として認められた。 ロドウィックはダニエル・デフォーと知り合いだったかもしれない。1694年のニューヨーク市長であるフランシスの甥チャールズ(1658-1724)は、立会人としてデフォーの結婚式に署名し、そしてフランシスは、1683年ロスコモン卿に設立された集団「ロスコモン学会」にデフォーを紹介したのかもしれない。 主な作品として、人工の表意文字を用いた「共通の文字」(A Common Writing)と音韻論に基づく整然とした字形秩序を持つ「普遍アルファベット」(Universal Alphabet)がある。
