What if you do: s/Esperantists/English-speakers/ and "non-English" AFAIK, the English language is very verbose. If there are so many words, many of which have very similar meaning to others, then many of those words are not needed? Should be removed, even, until everyone forgets them and doesn't miss them at all?
All human languages have redundancy, ambiguity, inconsistencies, etc. English isn’t special in this regard. > Should be removed Language is an emergent social phenomenon, not something anyone really controls or directs, so what “should” be done with it is a bit meaningless.
Of course. My argument was intended more of a thought exercise. Sorry about that. I should admit that I saw humour in the parent comment. But, it can be tough to tell sometimes online. Admittedly, it also depends on the reader's state of mind.
