==Linguistic development== Linguists, academics, and fans of the original novel have further developed and refined the Lapine language since its 1972 creation.<ref name=hickman/><ref name=jensen/> Authors, such as Patrick Jemmer (who corresponded briefly with Adams regarding Lapine), have made large-scale "recreations" of various possible historical stages of the language. Jemmer's work documents the evolution of numerous inter-related languages (the process of development and analysis is called "aleolinguistics").<ref name=jemmer14/> It contains comprehensive syntax for each linguistic stage (or "aleostate"), and vocabularies involving approximately 2000 lexemes. Sample scripts and comparative texts are available.<ref name=jemmer17/>
