Esperanto is The International
Language
If you are only interested in cultures of one language, then you really
should study that language. But, if you are interested
in the whole world, you should try Esperanto:
- Esperanto was designed to be everyone's SECOND
language, so it does not destroy any people's culture. Esperanto is
not meant to be the one and only world language!
- Esperanto is easy to learn: the grammar is
very simple with no exceptions;
pronunciation is phonetic; there are no
irregular verbs; and it creates or adapts new words easily, so
it is always fresh and up to date.
- Esperanto is fun! There are Esperanto bicyclists,
scouts, music groups... everything from stamp
collectors to
nudists.
- International contact and travel is easier, less
expensive and more interesting.
- There are millions of speakers worldwide,
that can be found in almost all countries today!
- Learning Esperanto first, makes learning other languages
easier!
- There are free courses onliine or using
traditional paper mail and even in schools.
