I mean, people would obviously propose English to be the world language, but its problematic since that is like telling the world that British Imperialism is somehow “okay”, which is not okay.
So we need another language.
But how could we possibly agree on one?
Do we just find the 100 rarest languages then use one of those?
Do we create a new one?
I think your first sentence got a little butchered by autocorrect, I assume it’s supposed to say “so many people”
But I agree that America (and honestly many other primarily English speaking countries) would be a big holdout if anything but English was to be adopted as the auxiliary language. Many other countries would probably be somewhat more open to it, but it has been tried before and never seems to gain traction (esperanto almost had a moment in the early 20th century where an esperanto-speaking county was almost established and where it almost became a working language for the League of Nations- the latter never came to pass basically because the French threw a hissy fit over it.)
Your assumption is correct, thank you, I edited :)
I had no idea that there was ever actually a moment for Esperanto that got blocked! I figured it had just been dismissed out of hand since its inception.
