This came into my mind when I read Orwell's 1984. The Newspeak has a very limited vocabulary and concepts in a way that impossibilizes thinking against the Party. Limiting a living language is practically impossible, as there surely would emerge a wide variety of nonstandard colloquial dialects with their own concepts, where "BB is ++ungood." would actually be understood.
Most of the vocabulary was coined assigning syllables to objects of everyday life, which other tribesmen accepted because they seemed good and at least there was something to refer the concept with. This happened in multiple places, which is why there are that much language families only coincedentally similar. I have noticed it mostly in Japanese, though distant, there are some strange references to Slavic languages (Russia).
mushi - fly in Japanese, similar to "muší" (fly-alike) in Czech
ka.u - buy in Japanese, similar to "kaufen" (buy) in German
fuyu - winter in Japanese, obviously onomatopoeic in refenece to wind (foooo, in Czech at least), from which "winter" seems derived too
haru - spring in Japanese, similar to hair, which is what grass looks like and is rendered in many games as
ki - tree in Japaneese, in Hawaiian Patwa (rare T~K alternation) it's almost it
neko - cat, compare the last syllable with Polish "kot"
kin - metal, onomatopoeic in reference to smithery or striking
hi - fire, similar to heat
iku - go, Czech "jít" thourgh Hawaiian Patwa
guruguru - round and round, like "guľu, guľu" in Slovak
shiri - arse, "shitty" in American English
machi - town, roughly Czech "město" (machi - mächo - metsö - město) as only consonant clusters are stable
The primary syllables weren't coined always at random. Often they represented the sound or were easy to pronounce yet were still unassigned. With Newspeak I mean, there would be a language making it's evolution almost from scratch again in the official circles, coining compounds like mad. Implementation could be written as thing-doing-way, reference as thing-point-thing, phone as far-speak-thing (r Fernsprecher) or even goat as white-horn-down-head-hair-middle-live-thing. Almost exacltly like Chinese coping with new vocabulary. Coincidentally, China is also totalitarian and with limited Simplified Chinese (still more characters than Japanese, which has Katakana), where a single Latin-English word can be represented by 10 hard-to-read characters, because Chinese has Bopomofo only in Taiwan and Latin looks ugly.
Then there are crazy mothers and the child cult. These people don't seem capable of controlling themselves as they invent diminuitives like husbie (manža) for husband, yumyumous (mňamózní) for tasty, nyunyunyu (ňuňuňu) for something like nyanyanya or kawaii. They also seem not to be acquainted of the punctuation system of their native language, deriving from posts on Mimibazar and E-mimino. Thinking that babies are too stupid for regular form of the language is a damnworthy underestimation. In no academic writing is a dog referred as a "woofie" (hafánek), a cat as "cheechee" (čičinka), a pig as "oinkie" (chrochtáček) or a car as "vroomvroom". I think these words are more harmful to children than those cunts, fucks, shits and pisses bleeped on TV.
Nevertheless the idea of this article came in a Czech class (during which I was reading that 1984 book?), when there was a talk about predication types. These can be also interjectional, and when I looked back to subject types, which can be interjectional too, the thought about such object came to my mind. What about a simple S-V-O sentence with only interjections, like mothers talk to their childs? And if a sentence is possible, then an entire language could be possible too, albeit with capabilities like Piraha. I created the grammar of GeSeL without prepositions and adverbs, also with an elaborate onomatopoeic system. Why couldn't a language be made only on onomatopoeic expression as every natural language once was?
The following is the base of the entire system:
X - X -> the action described by the sound itself
XX - Xer -> the source of the action or sound
XXX - Xing -> continuous action
XXXX - Xers -> multiple action or sound sources
where X is any interjection, in any language, in any way. There can be also compounds, which are pronounced without pause. Even commas it knows. As for now, there's no method for conditions, but possibly putting the "verb" right before the comma. Also there's no grammatical negation. Only this maybe, which can be incorporated into compounds by some clever ways:
bleh - puke
blehbleh - disgusting thing, puking person
blehblehbleh - puking
blehblehblehbleh - disgusting things, puking people
The word order is SVO (standard) or SOV (German/Japanese) for indication and VSO for question. Object must not appear before subject, but you know this from English already. Only acceptable is it when in OSV (Yoda) or OVS (Klingon) or VOS (Czech maybe) sentence you make a hill with your intonation on the subject, as an emphasis on who it was. This cannot be conveyed in written form. In Czech and Latin you are free once you learn all the declinations and conjugations since these are flective languages and each word's ending determines it's position in the sentence structure.
Each of S, V and O can hold it's own stack. Adverbs are stacked on V. The parts of a compound word are laid on a stack from left ro right, separated by hyphen. On space the stack gets processed in this way: X that is Y, that is Z, that is T, that is U, that is V etc.. It is possible to write these specifiers in adjective form without the hyphens. The only problem is there are no adjectives in Onomatopoeic Creole, only continuous form (3* an interjection) has similar purpose. That leaves you only with writing these specifiers after the main word, which will be parsed as X of Y, of Z, of T, of U, of V etc.. These principles are similar to the upcoming Getman Semitic Japanese Language. I might also call it Getman Analytic Grammar Framework since all upcoming languages will share it.
The best thing is backwards compatibility with the language you use for building sentences in this creole. The childish pidgin got it's own grammar from me. In the source language they are also a sort of valid sentenence equivalent.
You awed by me inventing languages that "never catch on" (this is Wikipedia's favorite meaning exactly "IMHO suck")? Enough, you, Tolkien did about 20, complete with dialects (actually various ealry versions) and mythology, yet there are very few fluent speakers, as well as with Klingon. My lanuages have no mythology and weak origins, this one is only apparenty hormonally mad mothers and strangers attempting to communicate with people who don't speak their (unfortunately for them both monolinguists) only language and GeSeL is nothing more than pink kawaii hijabi women and Osama bin Laden fapping to his unpublished hentai porn collection, combined with my failed attempts at learning Japanese and Arabic. In addition, most of the vocabulary is stolen so you don't have to learn it too much and eventually passively understand the language right after reading the article.
There's some Bacherol degree work on onomatopoeics in Czech literature (in Czech of course), maybe read this: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache%3A2M9SdnT_93UJ%3Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fis.cuni.cz%2Fwebapps%2Fzzp%2Fdownload%2F130153499+&cd=2&hl=cs&ct=clnk&gl=cz

Here's some random Java or maybe C++ code from ISIS's military training software The syntax is so ugly it compiles with 5241465 warnings in Java and 638175 warnings in C++, not counting all the errors.
