I am a native English speaker and recently started learning Esperanto a few weeks ago. I was inspired by a TED Talk that explained how Esperanto is an excellent first choice for those interested in acquiring multiple languages.
Due to its relative simplicity, learning Esperanto effectively prepares your brain for learning additional languages, making the process quicker and smoother.
So how many here speak different languages and what are they?
I was thinking of learning Morse Code, even tho it’s pretty much extinct now that it’s not required for a radio license anymore. I like the history of it and how excited people were about it back in the day. I think it’s still important, so it sucks that it’s going away.
I love the idea of Toki Pona, since it’s quick and short. But I went for Esperanto instead. I may try Toki Pona again tho!
Morse Code is still useful in certain circumstances. There are a lot of objects where you can use its properties as a substitute for the main set of sounds used.
Yep, I agree. It’s just that since it is not longer required learning anywhere for anything, it’s dying. Which sucks.
