If your lover lives in Hong Kong and cannot get to Chicago, it will be necessary for you to go to Hong Kong. Perhaps you will spend your life there, and never see Chicago again. And you will, I assure you, as long as space and time divide you from anyone you love, discover a great deal about shipping routes, airlines, earthquake, famine, disease, and war. And you will always know what time it is in Hong Kong, for you love someone who lives there. And love will simply have no choice but to go into battle with space and time and, furthermore, to win.

Also worth noting the conspicuous presence of another two conlangs (esperanto and Israeli) but no Persian or Tagalog

meshugenist

israeli hebrew is not a conlang it is just a partially-relexified de-diglossified form of rabbinic hebrew, with grammar and phonology primarily from the hebrew component of the ashkenazic diglossia/triglossia, and pronunciation primarily from the sefaradi counterpart with heavy yiddish and arabic loan components

(the sefaradi pronunciation is cuz maskilim were stupid orientalist self-hating morons who dovetailed with the dominant goyishe european orientalist idea that sefaradi hebrew was "pure/real" while ashkenazi hebrew was "corrupted/butchered" but that's a whole nother post - but suffice it to say that the majority of the "first speakers" of israeli hebrew were simply ashkenazi settlers who dutifully stopped speaking yiddish as a vernacular and shifted the same hebrew that they had used for prayer and liturgical purposes as well as for religious discourse and as a lingua franca to that purpose instead - in many cases even with the ashkenazi pronuciation before getting browbeaten into speaking it "properly" (sefaradically))

the idea of it being a "conlang" is a telephoned version of a zionist mystification of its de-diglossification in service of the zionist nation-building project and its goal of imposing zionist hegemony via linguistic homogenization upon global jewry; for this purpose, in line with the negation of jewish diasporic history/culture, a myth of a "miraculously revived dead language" was spread, seeking to replace and erase not only the diasporic vernacular components of jewish diglossias (eg. yiddish, judeo-arabic, spanyol, etc) but also to characterize the language that millions of jews have spoken in a wide variety of contexts for the last two millennia as but a pale shade of the "real thing" (monoglossic hebrew used as a vernacular) and homogenize the unique hebrew dialects in each di/triglossia into a single israeli ideal. the ostensibly antizionist version of this myth buys this farcical narrative hook line and sinker and then goes uh but that's like, bad, actually,

this also has major implications for legitimate native language revival and revitalization projects cuz this myth is so widespread that it is super common for ppl seeking to run these kinds of projects to get suckered into taking advice from ulpans for a bit before realizing that it is not even close to a revival. or a conlang for that matter! i hope this will become less common now at least that antizionism is more widespread

tl;dr no israeli hebrew isn't a conlang nor is it a revival. for an equivalent example it's like if a bunch of daeshi chuds in settler paramilitaries peer-pressured their buddies into only speaking fus7a and then instituted this as national policy to linguistically homogenize the nation
