Yaniku Universal (Jonathan Teuma)

This book is nothing less than a linguistic explanation of a new language via the poetic form.
Like so many before him, Yanito takes an established form of poetry , in this case haiku, in order to assert both the value and sheer existence of his mother tongue, Llanito.
As yet a formally unestablished language, Yanito intermingles the liberty that this affords with an established poetic structure in order to call attention to the beauty and (local) relevance of Llanito, in much the same way as poets from all over Europe used the Italian sonnet to lend weight and aesthetic beauty to their budding languages.
