I am interested in developing a domain-specific language which could be driven only by speech input. Are there examples of programming languages designed specifically for speech-only input? We can assume some form of feedback and storage (for humans), probably a screen although I'd also be interested in languages which have no feedback. I'd be interested in both formal grammars and natural language input.

+1 looks promising. The vocabulary should be fairly easy for a speech-recognition tool. Are line-ends significant? I assume not

Perligata is highly pronounceable (http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~damian/papers/HTML/Perligata.html)

 use Lingua::Romana::Perligata;

    maximum inquementum tum biguttam egresso scribe.
    meo maximo vestibulo perlegamentum da.
    da duo tum maximum conscribementa meis listis.

    dum listis decapitamentum damentum nexto
    fac sic
            nextum tum novumversum scribe egresso.
            lista sic hoc recidementum nextum cis vannementa da listis.
    cis.

This is a Latin version of Perl...

SO users did not come up with an answer that suggested a language that was useful and used.
