It is designed to be a simple language for international communication with just seven basic syllables based on the Western major musical scale (do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si).<\/p>\n<p>Solresol was the first constructed language to be taken seriously as an international auxiliary language (IAL), and the only musical language that gained much of a following.<\/p>\n<p>I look at the history of the language, and its structure, and will play with it to see how it works.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the Solresol words and phrases I use during this episode:<\/p>\n<p>Simi re domi dosolfala misol fa lalaresi refafa lasi la lamisolsi solresol lasolfado.<br \/>\n<em>Hello and welcome to episode five of the Omniglot podcast.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The appears to be no word for welcome in Solresol so I used <em>domi dosolfala misol<\/em> (you come well), and for Omniglot podcast I used <em>lamisolsi solresol lasolfado<\/em> (all language show).<\/p>\n<p>There is no word for radio either, but maybe you could use <em>resolrefa solfasimi fasidola resisido<\/em> (&#8220;send sound far device&#8221;). I came up with <em>lasirela sifamire lasi dofadofa<\/em> (&#8220;international network of knowledge&#8221;) for internet.
