la responde corta: si. me va reconta la responde longa, ance :-)

a comensa, Tavo ia es un varia simple de Glosa. pos alga tempo, me ia
repone la parolas Elas con parolas Latina. plu pos, me ia deside usa
la parolas de LFN, en loca de la parolas ce me ia inventa.

pos, Jorj ia usa alga ideas de Europjin en LFN. esta ia causa la forma
de LFN es plu como la forma de Tavo (e de Glosa).

pos Tavo es completa, el debe ave min varias de parola ce LFN,
ave poca parolas (sirca 1000), e probable ave 5 o 10 parolas ce no es
en LFN.

a esta ora, Tavo no ave plu progresa, causa ce me labora de otra
projetas (no de linguas), e per ce me no serta ce la resulta va es
multe plu bon ce LFN.

de tota la linguas de comunica internasional, me preferi LFN.

================================================================> What is Tavo? A streamlined version of LFN?

The short answer is yes. But I'll also share the long answer :-)

Tavo started as a streamlined version of Glosa. Eventually I abandoned
the Greek roots in favor of Latin. Then I decided to use LFN
vocabulary roots instead of inventing my own.

Later, George took some of the Europijin ideas and brought them in to
LFN. This brought the structure of LFN much closer to the structure of
Tavo (and Glosa).

If Tavo were in finished form right now, it would probably have fewer
affixes than LFN, a small vocabulary list (roughly 1000 roots), and
would probably have five or ten words that are not in LFN.

Currently, Tavo is stalled because I am working on too many other
(non-language) projects, and because I'm not sure I can add enough
value over LFN to be worth the effort.

Of all the complete IAL's I have seen, LFN is my favorite.
