Modern Indo-European is a reconstruction of the late Proto-Indo-European language, presented by two students at Extremadura University, Carlos Quiles and María Teresa Batalla, in 2006.

Purpose

The European language project's main aim is to obtain a common, modern and usable international auxiliary language for the European Union. The project aims to reconstruct the late Proto Indo-European language, as Hebrew was revived for the Land of Israel a century ago. The Dnghu Group stated goal for Europaio is, "to substitute present-day "linguae francae" from third parties within the EU for a single, natural and common National Language." The Europaio project therefore to promote a neutral language to all current and future EU members as an alternative to the common usage of one member's language such as English.

The revival project began with the foundation of the Dnghu Group in Extremadura in 2005, and the publication of "Europaio: A Brief Grammar of the European Language" (2006). The project was awarded a prize in a regional [http://www.unex.es/unex/servicios/comunicacion/archivo/2006/052006/19052006/art1/view Government and University Innovative Entrepreneurship Competition] in May 2006.

Alphabet and phonology

Modern Indo-European uses the Latin, Cyrillic and Greek alphabets; however, Perso-Arabic, Armenian and Devanagari alphabets have also been used for the language.

Vowels and vocalic allophones:

The Vowels are a, e, i, o, u, and ā, ē, ī, ō, ū.

Schleicher's fable

"The Sheep and the Horses":"A sheep that had no wool saw horses, one pulling a heavy wagon, one carrying a big load, and one carrying a man quickly. The sheep said to the horses: “My heart pains me, seeing a man driving horses”. The horses said: “Listen, sheep, our hearts pain us when we see this: a man, the master, makes the wool of the sheep into a warm garment for himself. And the sheep has no wool”. Having heard this, the sheep fled into the plain."
