Certainly not in my school.Domhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147200402821695839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733350938057820862.post-30645356948106721062011-09-16T11:24:49.886-07:002011-09-16T11:24:49.886-07:00My view is that learning any language is worth doi...My view is that learning any language is worth doing, although life is simply too short to learn them all. Learn Mandarin, and you’re tongue –tied in Japan. Learn Portuguese and you can’t even ask for a loaf of bread in Germany. Learn Arabic and you are reduced to miming in Russia. The obvious solution would be to make wider use of Esperanto.<br /><br />Dare I hope that more attention will be paid to Esperanto on the big day?Bill Chapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12810992711601197508noreply@blogger.com
