HI. I'm studying English at university and I'm currently working on my M.A. thesis about world linguistic problems. I would be glad of you could complete a questionnaire that is connected with the topic. Thanks a lot.
Here's the link:

http://webankieta.pl/ankiety/w1hptv4k2kra

The topic of my thesis is "English vs. Esperanto: a quest for a solution to the world linguistic problems". In it, I:

- identify the language problems that the world has to face nowadays (a lot of money spent on translations, limited access to knowledge due to language barriers, etc.)

- examine some of the solutions (laissez-faire, few ethnic languages, two ethnic languages, one ethnic or one planned language).

- I analyze the state of affairs as it is today (English as a dominant language in international relations, economy, education, media, communications) and contrast it with an alternative solution - Esperanto.

- Finally, I'll try to find the answer to a question which of the solutions suits best and what the future will bring, including your opinions (people from all over the world who speak English and are into language learning).

Also completed the survey. I'd love to see the results when it's done. Maybe we should create a poll here ?

Nobody else wants to help me? I've got 11 entries so far... I thought that was an interesting topic for people who are into language learning. The questionnaire is really short and it takes about a minute to complete it...

When you ask for help, you need to make it as easy as possible, such as creating a clickable link. It's easy.

You should add a bit of interesting information about your survey to make it a bit more attractive.
