Like this modern artificial language, Slovio/Slavsk, which AFAIK like all modern artificial/international languages has never caught on (people don't need them; they learn English) but is interesting to linguists and today's Slavophiles. It's like a Russian-based creole, simplified and easy to understand. My guess is if you learn this, a native Russian speaker could understand you. There are a couple synthetic languages which have significant adherents: Klingon and Esperanto.

As everybody know, love poetry reached its highest form of development under the Klingon Empire. Chicks can't resist a guy who can compose a sonnet in Klingon.
