Amongst conlangers, people who create constructed languages, a natural language has the label natlang. Natlangs are notorious for their complexity. Latinate languages, as well as other European, have convoluted verbal conjugations, which to learn is like to learn the frenetic Kanji logograms of Sinitic and Japonic languages. Such is why there are niches for conlangs like Esperanto and Toki Pona. Interlingua has a more organic morphology, yet the verbal conjugation is still quite simple compared to a Latinate natlang.
