Linkos

by Lewis Carroll

Linkos is a term that comes from Latin words: lingua – language and cosmica – cosmic.
H. Freudenthal developed a language that was created in 1960 by a Dutch mathematician and began to be used to communicate with alien civilizations that have reached a higher level of development than modern humans. With the exception of all other languages, including programming languages and other programming languages, Linkos does not involve the use of any language for its study that may be known to a trained intelligent being. There are no dictionaries or textbooks in this language. The process of studying it can be compared with the process of mastering a child’s native speech, but at the same time he has a very limited number of opportunities for visual representation of subjects. In order to teach Linkos to representatives of another civilization remotely, it is necessary to transmit signals (for example, in the radio range), each of which corresponds to only one concept. Based on this, it is assumed that learning this language should begin with the simplest mathematical concepts, and then they become more complicated. If the concepts of time and space are put into effect, then it will be possible to transfer real material. The initial stage of training is characterized by the transmission of a large number of series of messages in which you can catch something in common. For example, in the case of transmitting a large number of messages like “”+++++++++ @ +++””, where the number of crosses is always different, but their number to the left of the @ sign is always greater than their number to the right, it should be understood that the value “more” means the @ sign.
