	Esperanto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Esperanto is particularly prevalent in the northern and eastern countries of Europe; in China, Korea, Japan, and Iran within Asia; in Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico in the Americas; and in Togo and Madagascar in Africa.
		An estimate of the number of Esperanto speakers was made by Sidney S. Culbert, a retired psychology professor of the University of Washington and a longtime Esperantist, who tracked down and tested all Esperanto speakers in sample areas of dozens of countries over a period of twenty years.
		Esperanto is often used to access an international culture, including a large corpus of original as well as translated literature.

		Esperanto is also credited as being the foundation for later competing projects, such as Interlingua and Occidental, but these languages also lag far behind Esperanto in numbers of speakers.
		Esperanto is not an official language of any country, although there were plans at the beginning of the 20th century to establish Neutral Moresnet as the world's first Esperanto state, and the shortlived artificial island micronation of Rose Island used Esperanto as its official language in 1968.
		Esperanto is primarily agglutinative (Wells 1989 calculates an index of agglutinativity of 0.9999, higher than any non-constructed language), with all grammatical function suffixes appearing at the ends of words, and a mix of prefixes and suffixes with lexical meanings.

	ELNA - "The International Language that works" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Esperanto gives a very "natural" impression in spoken or written use; and, because of its high ratio of vowels to consonants, it is often said to resemble Spanish or Italian.
		Esperanto does not aim at replacing the existing national languages; but it overcomes the present linguistic chaos by serving as a neutral instrument of international communication for all.
		By the Resolution of December 10th, 1954, the General Conference of UNESCO recognized that the results achieved by Esperanto in intellectual exchanges and in bringing people together are in accordance with the aims and ideals of UNESCO; that is, Esperanto contributes to international cooperation in the fields of education, science, and culture.

	Congresses of UEA
		UEA is by far the largest of the various international organizations promoting the use of the international language Esperanto.
		UEA tries to organize a congress outside Europe every 3 to 4 years, in order to support the movement in other continents, and inside of Europe to migrate equitably between southern, northern, eastern and western and central regions of the old continent.
		UEA excepts a similar treatment also in the future, and that should be considered in the bidding procedure when inviting the Congress.

	Esperanto article INSIGHT 1997
		Because Esperanto (which means "a person who is hoping") is free of the cultural baggage of any particular nation, ideology or ethnic group, it is considered a politically neutral tongue (see sidebar).
		Esperanto speakers fared little better in China during the Cultural Revolution, when they often were thrown in prison or worse.
		The FBI investigated the American Esperanto Association in the early fifties, suspecting it was riddled with Communists.

	Can Esperanto Save "Cultural Diversity"?
		He contended that general application of Esperanto under these circumstances would permit such small ethnic groups to dispense more quickly with the major national languages that they are now constrained to use and which threaten their particular identity (such as German in the case of the Wends or French in the case of the Bretons).
		He does not pretend that Esperanto could "save" small languages that are already close to extinction, but calls for the establishment of "culturally protected regions" for groups such as Wends in Germany, which are too small to establish states of their own.
		In a paragraph that enumerates the advantages of Esperanto, it is claimed that one of them is "guaranteed respect for diversity and thus, the preservation of the cultural particularities of Europe".

	BEL
		Esperanto, which may be regarded as the most mature amongst the various planned language projects, was highly praised by 'Abdu'l-Bahá.
		It was then during the 57th Esperanto World Congress that the nine participating Bahá'ís consulted together and decided to write to the Universal House of Justice to seek its approval for the founding of a Bahá'í Esperanto organisation.
		The congratulatory openings by the Presidents of the Universal Esperanto Association (UEA) and of BEL itself are followed Bernhard Westerhoff's essay on the changing, and not always completely harmonious, relationship between the Bahá'ís and the Esperantists.

		Esperanto can also be learned on the world-wide web and details of the many available books in the language can also be accessed on the web.
		The universal adoption of any national language gives an unfair economic, cultural and social advantage to the nation or nations whose language it is. Also, while every language should be cherished by those who have it as their mother-tongue, national languages present grave disadvantages in an international context.
		Esperanto enables people to communicate on a basis of equality and neutrality, which is not the case with a state language such as English or French which economically and culturally gives the countries speaking these languages at an unfair advantage over others.

		According to one study produced by a UN agency(2), enormous sums could be saved by the worldâs poorest countries, if they were to respect the linguistic human rights of their inhabitants and to teach in their local languages.
		In addition they consider that the present situation, in which only certain languages are used for contacts between members of different peoples, is unsatisfactory, discriminatory, and fails to contribute to the requirements for international understanding, peace and equality.
		The UN Commission for Human Rights should support the attempts by experts, including the World Esperanto Association, to study and experiment with the most effective ways of selecting the languages to be used for teaching in schools, with the aim of respecting linguistic human rights and encouraging development in the countries concerned.
