Y'all seen this? It is a description of a theoretical Last-In-First-Out stack based spoken language. As they would say in Fith; "site interesting the URL the on is" http://www.langmaker.com/lifointro.htm or click RPNglish
The first 2/3 is just an RPN primer. The last third of the page is about the language and there are links for more on Fith grammer. It sounds like a logical and straightforward way to think, till you read that they have a base 144 number system. 12 i could see, but that number is just gross.
