Esperanto, Ido, Interlingua : The Law of Persistence of Errors
- Posted by Dr.Esperanto on May 11th, 2008 filed in Conlang
Another hard criticism against Volapük, Esperanto, Ido, Interlingua and other conlangs, answering a comment from a Esperantist in a post about the Grin Report’s support for Esperanto as Europe’s language:
Le meilleur est l’ennemi du bien, ‘The best is the enemy of the good’; Ever since Ido tried to ‘improve’ on Esperanto, many other constructed languages have come along, but none has achieved anything near to what Esperanto has accomplished
there are more than 30,000 book titles in Esperanto! And Esperanto has been around for more than 120 years! Most of the other attempts at a constructed language have fallen by the wayside.
