I am not impressed.

rlsinclair:I have just looked up “Esperanto” in the new “Wolfram Alpha”.It also says 2000 speakers and 0 native speakers. Even less impressive!

Hmmm, estas ero de misaĵo tie! Mi pensas ke Zamenhof'o ne estis franca! Sed vidi la literajn frekvencojn kaj longecoj de tradukaĵojn estas iomete bone(?)...

rlsinclair:I have just looked up “Esperanto” in the new “Wolfram Alpha”.I had exactly the same reaction last night when I entered it. Just proves again that you cannot believe everything you read online. I constantly remind my kids that Wikipedia is a great tool but should be used carefully. I've found errors in printed books too so nothing is perfect

By the way, I'm pretty sure they're wrong about French too: 64.86 million speakers? There are 65 million people in France, and French is spoken in many more countries. (And according to them, 79% of France population speak it… This would be very surprising.)
