Calling Esperanto everyone's favorite is a bit far fetched

[–] Rogue@feddit.uk 7 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Everyone likes the idea of Esperanto but nobody can be fucked with learning a language nobody else presently uses.

Especially since we English have somehow managed to blunder and bludgeon our language so widely across the world that it's just accepted as a default.

I was just going to say I love the idea of learning Esperanto but why and where would I ever learn it.

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I learned a bit, but in the end i found interlingua much more interesting. If you learn interlingua you can speak to native speakers of all the Latin derived languages at a basic level at least.

Sounds much more useful than a language that no one speaks
