My name is Jamie Shoemaker. As a linguist in the Washington, DC area, I became interested long ago in serious constructed languages. One, in particular, struck me as brilliant above all the others: Unilingua, as the late French inventor, Noubar Agapoff, called it (rather mysteriously, since the vocabulary of the language is a priori and not based on any existing human language, much less Latin). I decided to take his language, rename it Mirad, more internally consistent; make it more readable in terms of the alphabet; add, amend, and subtract some things in the grammar and vocabulary; then publish it here as a Wikibook called Mirad Grammar for all the world to enjoy. Although the grammar is a complete work, I am still making changes and additions. Notably, I have built an 80,000+ word bi-directional dictionary website, which can be queried inside the Mirad Grammar.
If you are interested in Mirad, you can contact me on my discussion page and then we can exchange email addresses.
