title_body: Name of a group of languages with has "less is more" property Is there a name of a group of languages that try to remove instead of adding things? 
  Examples:
  
  
  Newspeak: reduces words (e.g. bad will be ungood (prefix "un" meaning not), eliminate expression that are not "good" (more here
  the Sij: according to author it has 10 word (or at least morpheme).
  
  
  So in other words makes a language that (one or more):
  
  
  is less complex
  has less word
  has less tenses
  just "less" of something
  
  
  I have only found term "Micro (artistic) language" in the wiki but it was deleted. Here is the last version that mention it. I am not sure if such term is even used.
upvoted_answer: These languages could be called minimalist conlangs. This term has been applied to languages like Toki Pona quite regularly, as a Google search will bear out. The term has also been used to describe a number of languages on the CBB, such as Sint and Nomadic.
  
  The same word can be applied to parts of a language, e.g. Davush on CBB refers to their Shiruitoan language as having a minimalist phonology.
