Every year, our world seems smaller. Ships carry a thousand items between countries.
Jets carry passengers across oceans and around the world.
Satellites bring us live television coverage from Europe and Asia. Every year, Americans in every walk of life communicate more and more with people of other countries. Often, in other countries, only people in the best hotels of the largest cities can use English, and even they are often not very fluent. Anyone who has visited a foreign country and struggled with the language barriers understands this. Its name is Esperanto.
