MIT research finds the brain’s language-processing network also responds to artificial languages such as Esperanto and languages made for TV, such as Klingon on “Star Trek” and High Valyrian and Dothraki on “Game of Thrones.”

      I agree, it’s a strange wording, that’s why I say “constructed languages” when referring to them

        Which makes me skeptical about the news article, or the study itself. If the study doesn’t call them “constructed languages,” then I question the researchers - if they were studying this, they should know better. Nobody in the conlang community - inside Lemmy or out - calls them anything other than “constructed languages.” If they don’t know this basic fact, well.
