An engineered language (or short, engelang) is a conlang designed to meet a set of specified, objectively testable design goals. Many engelangs explore a hypothesis of how languages might work. Important subcategories of engelangs are philosophical languages and logical languages.

Engineered languages are usually not associated with worldbuilding and have no concultures attached.
