Joseph McConkie and Robert Millet note that the language in which the messages of the Liahona were written was new to Lehi and his family and yet easily understood by them. No additional commentary is given on the matter. We are left to wonder whether it was pure Adamic language (see Moses 6:5-6) and whether or not it influenced the nature of their written language thereafter. [Joseph Fielding McConkie and Robert L. Millet, Doctrinal Commentary on the Book of Mormon, Vol. I, p. 126]
