Romanid is a constructed language, created by the Hungarian language teacher Zoltán Magyar. As the name expresses, it is based on the Romance languages and intended as a zonal constructed language that can be understood by Romance speakers without prior learning. Magyar published a first version of the language in May 1956 and a second, adapted version in December 1957. In 1984 he published a phrasebook with a short grammar, in which he presents a slightly more simplified version of the language than in older versions.[1]
The language is based on the most common word expressions from several Romance languages (French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish).[2] It is said to enjoy some popularity among Hungarians.[3] According to the Russian newspaper Trud, Romanid, from a structural point of view, is "considerably simpler and easier to learn" than Esperanto.[4]
