sure you can make a language that's grammatically unambiguous, thats mostly just busywork removing duplicates in a dictionary
but can you make a language inherently contextually unambiguous? take for example that meme which says "you" and "me, an intellectual"
do you, the reader, infer by the contrast that i'm saying you're not an intellectual? or do you logically conclude that by the omission nothing can be assumed of you?
i think that goes beyond written language

@witchfynder_finder @squirrel the only language that tries to capture all that nuance is ikthuil, and it's impossible to actually speak

@lizardsquid @squirrel "No person, including Quijada [the author], is known to be able to speak Ithkuil fluently."
WELL, THEN!
