I agree. I am about to start learning Esperanto. If I study for 30-60 minutes a day, I should be doing well after a month or so (if what Esperantists have told me is true, and I assume it is). But I am not learning the language to further the brotherhood of man. I want to learn Italian in the coming year, and I've heard that Esperanto will help. We'll see... By the way, if Esperanto is meant to be an international language, it can't properly be tied to 'ideals', because it loses its neutrality. It is a paradox then, I suppose. The ideals that give birth to IALs are the same ones that retard their growth. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Money is the most important thing.
People won´t learn a language if it can´t not give them more job opportunites. Even it´s pretty easy. Just like Sprachprofi have said¨many could learn it but won't until it is more wide-spread¨ Only those people who love languages will learn it with no reason. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Esperanto is not the international language. Esperanto is like Klingon - a hobby language of a club. Outside of the Esperantist Club Movement the Esperanto language is totally useless. There are no non-Esperantists who speak Esperanto!
My advice is NOT to learn Esperanto, it is waste of time. 6 persons have voted this message useful |
