	Volapük Reformation (Arie de Jong)
		Volapük was first published in 1879 by Johann Martin Schleyer (1831-1912) and for a brief period achieved immense popularity before being eclipsed by Esperanto.
		In 1912 Schleyer died and little was heard of the declining Volapük movement until a revival occurred led by Arie de Jong (1865-1957) in the Netherlands in the 1930's, and also in Germany until banned by Hitler.
		Schleyer avoided the letter r because he thought it would be difficult for the Chinese and others, and this resulted in words like blod, from English brother and flapön, to hit, from French frapper.

	Volapük Collection, American Philosophical Society
		Created by the German priest Johann Martin Schleyer in 1879, Volapük ("World's Speech") was the first artificial language to gain wide spread popularity as a prospective form of universal communication.
		The first planned language to gain any degree of success, Volapük was the brain child of Johann Martin Schleyer (1831-1912), a Catholic priest from southern Germany who claimed to have received divine inspiration to improve international communication.
		After the congress of 1889, Schleyer's vehement resistance to any alteration in his original conception eroded support, and the language began a slow decline relative to the upstart Esperanto.

		Introduced in 1880, it was created by Johann Martin Schleyer, a Roman Catholic priest of German extraction.
		Schleyer worked out for Volapük an alphabet, a grammar, and a vocabulary based chiefly on Latin, the Romance languages, and the Germanic languages.
		Although Volapük had a great vogue at first, it rapidly lost ground when it proved to be difficult to learn and use.

		Schleyer, meanwhile, had decided that no one but him should have any say in Volapük at all; he formed his own academy, composed entirely of people who agreed with him.
		Johann Martin Schleyer lived until 1912 (although American newspapers, sensing perhaps a disturbance in the Volapük community, printed his obituary in 1888).
		The title of Cifal has been handed down in unbroken succession from Father Schleyer to Bishop, a semiretired teacher and civil servant with a donnish voice and a remarkable ability to be consumed by his hobbies.

		VOLAPÜK was a constructed language created in 1880 by Johann Martin Schleyer, a Roman Catholic priest in Baden, Germany.
		Schleyer felt that God had come to him in a dream and asked him to create a universal human idiom - understandable given God's attitude to Babel, and the confusion of tongues therein.
		Amazingly enough, Volapük conventions took place all over Europe and by 1889 there were an estimated 283 clubs, 25 periodicals in or about Volapük and 316 textbooks in 25 languages.

		Volapük was originally the creation of a German priest, Johann Martin Schleyer (1831-1912), and was published in 1879.
		Some put it down to the clamour for reforms to the language, others point to the author Schleyer's proprietorial attitude to his creation, and still others point to the fact of Esperanto being easier to learn.
		There was a revival of Volapük in the 1930's, principally in the Netherlands, led by Arie de Jong (1865-1957), who also revised the language slightly into the form which is normally used today.

	Esperanto
		After the passion for pasigraphies had faded, a Catholic priest-Monsignor Johann Martin Schleyer of Konstanz, Germany-ignited fresh interest in model languages by publishing his own language, Volapük, in 1880.
		Unlike the rough ideas for philosophical systems, Volapük had been fully fleshed out, with a vocabulary based on English, Latin and Romance roots and with a somewhat simplified grammar that was based on German and eliminated many conjunctions and declensions.
		Schleyer, Volapük's inventor, rejected the need for any changes.

	INTERNATIONAL AUXILIARY LANGUAGES
		Therefore, even if my personal preferences were otherwise, I agree largely with the linguist Mario Pei (paraphrasing) that it is more important that people pick some workable language and simply agree to use it than that everybody be happy with the choice.
		One of the problems was that Schleyer insisted on maintaining complete proprietary control and settling all issues himself.
		However, in the 1930's, well after Schleyer's death, Arie de Jong of the Netherlands led a small Volapük revival after introducing some changes, and it is now de Jong's version which is commonly used as "Volapük" by those people who still use the language.

		And rumour has it that the Chevy Nova never sold well in Spanish speaking countries.
		Volapük is an artificial language, created in 1879 to 1880 by a Catholic Priest called Johann Martin Schleyer, possibly because God told him in a dream to create an international language.
		Did it not occur to him that an international language, especially one based on English and hence designed to appeal to English speakers, should have a sensible name?
