Meseleroi

Meseleroi is a term primarily used within certain online communities and subcultures, specifically those centered around language creation or conlanging. It generally refers to a type of constructed language (conlang) that aims for maximal complexity and artificiality, often prioritizing intricate grammatical rules, extensive vocabularies, and phonological inventories that may be challenging for human speakers to acquire. The primary goal of a meselang (short for "meseleroi language") is not typically practical communication but rather the artistic or intellectual exploration of linguistic possibilities, or even deliberate obfuscation.

A meselang often distinguishes itself from other conlangs by deliberately avoiding features found in natural languages. This might involve complex systems of declension and conjugation, unusually large numbers of phonemes, or syntactic structures that deviate significantly from typical human language patterns. The term can also be used, sometimes pejoratively, to describe conlangs that are perceived as overly complex or impractical. However, creators of meselangs may view their creations as exercises in linguistic design or as artistic expressions, not intended for widespread use. The intention behind creating a meselang is key to its categorization.
