Komusan is meant to become an easy-to-learn, logical and well-balanced auxiliary language for global usage. Its name is shortened from komun lisan "common tongue", which is a poetic way to say 'common language'. Komusan's goal is to allow people who otherwise don't share a common language to communicate effectively and on an equal footing.
Its grammar is largely isolating and it is based on three other auxiliary language (auxlangs): Globasa, Lidepla, and Glosa, aiming to combine the best of their traits and elements without needlessly reinventing the wheel.
