Adjuvilo is a language created in 1908 by Claudius Colas under the pseudonym of "Profesoro V. Esperema". Although it was a full language, it was never created to be spoken. An Esperantist, Colas created Adjuvilo to help create dissent in the then-growing Ido movement.
Sample
A sample of Adjuvilo, the often-translated Pater Noster:
Patro nosa, qua estan en cielos, santa esten tua nomo, advenen tua regno, esten tua volo, quale en cielos, tale anke sur la tero; nosa panon omnadaga donen a nos hodie; nosas ofendos pardonen a nos, quale nos pardonan a nosas ofendantos e ne lasen nos fali en tento, ma liberifen nos de malbono.
