English Lingua Franca Nova Dictionary 16 October 2012 http://lfn.wikia.com/ http://webspace.ship.edu/cgboer/lfn/ http://purl.org/net/lfn/disionario/ 1 Introduction Lingua Franca Nova (LFN) is an auxiliary constructed language created by Dr C George Boeree of Shippensburg University, Pennsylvania. This dictionary is a computer-generated index to the English words and phrases listed in the master LFN–English dictionary at http://purl.org/net/lfn/disionario/ (which can also be downloaded in PDF form). Since English lacks a rule for whether to hyphenate compounds or write them as one word or two, hyphens and spaces are simply ignored in the ordering of words here. For example, car park appears just before carpenter, rather than just after car. If you notice a difference between this dictionary and the master dictionary, you can assume the master is correct. But please let us know, e.g. via the forums at http://lfn.wikia.com/ or http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/LinguaFrancaNova/.
