Anlai

**Anlai** is the language of Anlia. In Anlia, computers translate all text into Anlai, store it as Anlai, and translate it into the user language shortly before being read. The language does however have unique words that Anlians may know because they can't be translated. One example is Angangl which means the ideal state for you specifically, where your ticks match the laws without banishment and your triggers match the laws with restraint. Another example is Anlia itself.

The language is arrived at by drawing pictures of the thing in question and dividing them into featural symbols. Most are shaped like shapes of the tongue and some are shaped like shapes of the lips. They stack, engulf, and sit adjacent to each other to produce the iconic symbols and are read in like order.

The translatable portion of the language goes as follows.
