Esperanto
Designed universal language
Esperanto is a constructed language created in 1887 to serve as an easy-to-learn international auxiliary language.
Its vocabulary draws from European languages, especially Romance and Germanic roots, with regularized grammar and phonetic spelling.
A small but dedicated community of speakers keeps it alive: She learned Esperanto as her first foreign language.
The adjective form describes things related to the language or its speakers.
