Anathem did this very well; it was weird enough that it felt alien yet familiar enough I didn't really have to look anything up and it felt, well, real, without awkward pronunciation or phrasing. That and LOTR since it actually had a logical phonology and complete grammar. Helps that JRR was a linguist.
