is esperanto really useful at all… personally i don’t like it because it’s so eurocentric and there’s a lot of unnecessary irregularities
esperanto is...i mean its Useful imo, for me? bc i love languages & also because its very versatile & allows u 2 easily connect w/ ppl as like, a middleman language i suppose? also as a constructed language it’ll certainly help u learn other languages & to maybe even have a greater insight into how languages work
it is v eurocentric i dont rly blame zamenhof much for that bc, dude lived in poland surrounded by a wealth of languages which were all indo-european in origin but like i get why that would make it not as appealing, but it’s still learned easily by a plethora of ppl who aren’t from europe
and it actually has like....almost no unnecessary irregularities? that was like partially the purpose of the language actually! was for it to eliminate difficulties and such in the learning process it’s supposed to be p easy, i’m not sure what u mean by irregularities really bc i cant think of any that arent v obscure would u mind giving me some examples?
