In our Eulingu concept, we distinguish between two complementary language variants:
Striktu - the main formal language, is clearly structured, consistent, and easy to learn – ideal for education, administration, and cross-border communication.
Slangu - on the other hand, is the lived, emotional expression of Eulingu. It allows for stylistic freedom, identification, regional influences, and social nuances. In most cases, we neglect the final -u in nouns - when appropriate - and -us/-as/-os/-is in adjectives. We also add fixed terms to the Eulingu vocabulary including neologisms.
Dur ni promote Striktu - ni parle i vive Slangu!
