It sure as heck ain't Volapük. It's an ancient tongue referenced by Robert Heinlein, spoken by the Stainless Steel Rat and once badly mangled by Saint William of Shatner in the halcyon days of the mid ninteen sixties. Some people declare it to be a superior tongue yet others decry it for needless complexity which may confuse people without a Western or European cultural heritage.

Look it up on Google because I'm not going to give you a straight answer.
