Here is a list of '''common phrases in [[constructed language]]s''', similar to the list of [[common phrases in different languages]] which lists phrases in natural languages.

It is possible for [[tourism|tourists]] in a country whose language they do not understand to get along with a surprisingly short list of phrases, combined with pointing, miming, and writing down numbers on paper. While most of the languages on this page are not spoken by a wide number of people, the list may give a little glimpse into what a language looks like. Also, some languages (in particular [[Esperanto]]) may indeed be useful to a tourist wishing to communicate.

You are invited to add more languages to the list. Please use the minimum number of words that would be understandable and put the pronunciation in slashes according to [[International Phonetic Alphabet|IPA]], [[SAMPA]] or [[X-SAMPA]] transcription if possible. If desired, also add a pseudo-English pronunciation guide for those not familiar with SAMPA or [[International Phonetic Alphabet|IPA]]. However, actual pronunciations of the pseudo-English spellings will vary wildly from speaker to speaker. Enclose the "spelling guide" in parentheses, separate syllables with dashes, use English words that sound like the syllables if possible, and render the stressed syllable in ALL CAPS.

The language family of every language is listed in parentheses.
