Although I am more of an Elefen (Lingua Franca Nova), Occidental and Latino sine Flexione fan ... i still love Esperanto, and want it to learn it, and want Esperanto to grow and be preserved ... at the end of the day, every IAL, be it Esperanto, Ido or Novial, is an effort by the person(s) who created the languages, and then others who learnt the languages and furnished the languages (e.g. by creating communities, organizing meetups, translating content, creating original content in the IAL etc)

Hi! Thanks for the post—I really enjoyed reading it. I don’t think Esperanto can be the world’s main language, but I like it a lot. I’m also interested in other planned languages, like Novial and Occidental. It’s great that people build communities around them and keep the languages alive.
