abstract
  • Lovian English is a variety of North American English used in Lovia. In many ways, it resembles American English, and especially the Californian dialect. In fact it's a mixture of Californian American English and European influences. Many of the grammatical constructions are derived from Dutch, Libertan or French grammar. Lovian English is, spoken, mostly the same as American, and written as well. Characteristics of American English, such as an 'o' instead of 'ou' (eg. 'color'), are also typical for Lovian. According to the Constitution, English is the official language of Lovia. In fact, the Constitution says that American English is preferred. Many consider Lovian English as a variety of American English. Boundaries between these varietes are unclear, and so, Lovian English is frequently seen as the official language of Lovia. The Dykstra-Morris Dictionary of Lovian English is one of the most popular dictionaries used by Lovians, and the only major publication to focus exclusively on the Lovian dialect. In the absence of any official regulation, it is the most influential work on the subject.
