The '''Robot Interaction Language''' ('''ROILA''') is the first spoken language created specifically for talking to robots.<ref>{{cite web|url=
==History==
ROILA was developed due to the need for a unified language for humans to speak to robots. The designers performed research into the ability of robots to recognize and interpret natural languages. They discovered that natural languages can be very confusing for robots to interpret sometimes, due to elements such as [[homophones]] and [[tenses]]. Based on this research, the team set out to create a [[genetic algorithm]] that would generate an artificial vocabulary in a way that would be easy for a human to pronounce. The algorithm used the most common [[phonemes]] from the most popular natural languages and created easy to pronounce words. The team took the results of this algorithm and formed the ROILA vocabulary.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.scivee.tv/node/19096 |title=Robot Interaction Language (ROILA) | SciVee |publisher=Scivee.tv |

===Grammar===
ROILA was designed to have a regular grammar, with no exceptions to anything. All rules apply to all words in a part of speech. Due to the simple isolating type grammar of ROILA whole word markers are added following parts of speech to show the grammatical category. For example, a word marker placed after a verb type would apply a tense, while a word marker applied after a noun type would apply plurality. ROILA has five parts of speech: nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, and pronouns. The only pronouns are I, you, he, and she.<ref name="Mubin2011">{{cite thesis |chapter-url=https://drhu.eu/reports/2011-OmarMubin-ROILA.pdf#page=54 |title=ROILA: RObot Interaction LAnguage |date=2011 |page=39 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304084619/http://drhu.eu/reports/2011-OmarMubin-ROILA.pdf#page=54 |archive-date=4 March 2016 |url-status=live |chapter=Parts of Speech |first=Omar |last=Mubin |chapter-format=PDF |type=PhD |isbn=978-90-386-2505-8 }}</ref> Sentences follow a [[subject–verb–object]] word order.
===Examples===
The following examples attempt to show what the syntax of the language looks like in various uses.
