The Failed Quest for Universal Language Since 1879

Nov 13, 2021

You name them, so many tried form a universal language to unite humanity. Money and time wasted for this quest including the United Nations. Why on earth are we questing for something that is imbedded in us? Noam Chomsky would say this stupid and I agree.


Since 1879, there have been many quests to create an ideal universal language for human harmony and unity- including: attempts from Volapuk, Blissymbols, Modern Indo-European, Interglossa and Glosa,Real Character, Solresol, Ido, aUI, Ithkuil, Lojban, Esperanto but all of these attempt has failed as deliberate creation to become the universal language for humanity. 

I would say language is an indispensable for life, words can make or break someone- certainly shape our ideas and identities.

let this video do the talking- until next time!
