Natural language

For neuropsychology, linguistics, and philosophy of language, a natural language or ordinary language bu any language when occur naturally for a human community by a process of use, repetition, and change without conscious planning or premeditation. It fit take different forms, namely either a spoken language or a sign language. Natural languages di distinguished from constructed and formal languages such as those used to program computers or to study logic.

 Defining natural language 
Natural language fit di broadly defined as different from

 artificial and constructed languages, e.g. computer programming languages
 constructed international auxiliary languages
 non-human communication systems in nature such as whale and other marine mammal vocalizations or honey bees' waggle dance.

All varieties of world languages bu natural languages, including those when di associated with linguistic prescriptivism or language regulation. (Nonstandard dialects fit di viewed as a wild type in comparison with standard languages.) An official language with a regulating academy such as Standard French, when the
Académie Française di oversee, di classified as a natural language (e.g. in the field of natural language processing), as its prescriptive aspects no make am constructed enough to bu a constructed language or controlled enough to bu a controlled natural language.

 Controlled languages 
Controlled natural languages bu subsets of natural languages whose grammars and dictionaries done di restricted in order to reduce ambiguity and complexity. This fit di accomplished by decreasing usage of superlative or adverbial forms, or irregular verbs. Typical purposes for developing and implementing a controlled natural language bu to aid understanding by non-native speakers or to ease computer processing. An example of a widely-used controlled natural language bu Simplified Technical English, which them originally develop for aerospace and avionics industry manuals.

 International constructed languages 
Some natural languages done become organically "standardized" through the synthesis of two or more pre-existing natural languages over a relatively short period of time through the development of a pidgin, which cannot bu considered a language, into a stable creole language. A creole such as Haitian Creole get it own grammar, vocabulary and literature. It di spoken by over 10 million people worldwide and bu one of the two official languages of the Republic of Haiti.
