Sambahsa, short for Sambahsa-Mundialect, is a constructed language designed by French linguist Olivier Simon in 2007. It is based on Proto-Indo-European (PIE), the ancient ancestor of many modern languages, but also incorporates vocabulary from non-PIE languages like Arabic, Chinese, and Swahili. The name "Sambahsa" combines the Malay words sama (same) and bahsa (language).
