| Saint Hildegard says not to write anything nasty with her letters. |
Today is the feast day of St. Hildegard of Bingen, who is probably the only saint to have created a language. She did other things to, but among those who study constructed languages, her “Lingua Ignota” has long held pride of place as the earliest recorded artificial language. She died on September 17, 1179. I’m not certain if that’s been adjusted for calendar changes, but about 853 years ago today.[1]
