Welcome!

Welcome to the very beginnings of the official home for the Láadan language.

This website is founded with the support, advice and approval of Láadan's creator Suzette Haden Elgin, and is the home for the official Láadan dictionaries.

That said, Suzette wishes to stress that Láadan does not belong to her; Láadan belongs to any and all who want to use it.

So we heartily welcome all of you, and gratefully welcome your input and support.

Wil sha,
[Let there be harmony],
