Changes in Power of Language to Prevent Language Insecurity???
I do not completely agree with The Prague Manifesto of the Movement for the International Language Esperanto and their efforts to demote any large language group from being the dominant language across the Internet. I do not believe they give valid reasons for trying to make a language that is not the native language of any large group the language that is the basic language of the Internet.
Say changes were made and it would be a less dominant language that flowed over the Internet. How would international business continue to thrive when hardly any countries knew the small groups language.
What sense does that make! It should definitely be for the majority or in this case the language that many are fluent or competent in; ENGLISH! A large part of the world already knows English; why not keep it that way.
Let's Be Realistic!
