A '''sketchlang'''or '''sketch''' is a [[conlang]] with few details. A sketch is to conlangs like a stub is to wiki pages.

Many sketches never reach full maturity, and never receive a full grammar or vocabulary. Usually they are quickly put-together (or 'sketched'). However, carefully-constructed sketchlangs do exist, and nearly every conlang starts out as a sketch.

Another definition of a sketch is a conlang that has been abandoned or put on hiatus in early development.

Many '''naming languages''' never get beyond the point of being sketchlangs, and a large number of [[Fictional language|fictlang]]s are themselves sketchlangs.

For a list of sketchlangs which have a page on FrathWiki, see [[:Category:Sketchlangs|the Sketchlangs category]].
