After tinkering a little bit with Esperanto for the first time here is the impression I got-it's basically a european-based language,something like an Italian-spanish pigin from some remote island with some words from other languages ,european too,here and there.
It seems helpful as an introduction to start learning your first foreign language,though.Before starting to learn a real one,that is. My conclusion-helpful,but by no means an international language of communication. Edited by 1qaz2wsx on 17 April 2011 at 7:44pm 5 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

So, what constitutes an international language?

It's definitely not a pigin from a remote island.
I didn't quite catch you.You mean remove this topic? Another impression that I got is that esperantists often vehemently oppose opinions against Esperanto. Edited by 1qaz2wsx on 17 April 2011 at 8:08pm 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

... often vehemently oppose uninformed or glib opinions ... but I don't, they just bore me. :-) I'd suggest you don't waste any more of your time on it then. Enjoy your non-Esperanto studies. d. 3 persons have voted this message useful |
