FRENCH Is SECOND CHOICE
Germans, Knowing Their Language

English will be the world language
Of the ~future-with French as a close
second choice and with German run
ming a poor third.
This discussion Of a "world Ian
guage" which is occupying consider
able attention around Paris, reveals
among other things a strange chapter
Of German duplicity and trickery. 1t
now seems certain that the Germans,
knowing the German language was in
adequate as a world tongue, tried their
best to get the world to think favora-
bly, of certain "cooked-up" languages
made to order things as 1t were, in or
der to prevent French or English from
being considered as the legitimate
world languages.
These artificial tongues, such as Es-
peranto, which was probably the best.
known to them, in America at least,
were fairly numerous and each one
was given some sort of an odd name.
They were called Esperanto, lido. lovo-
Latin and several other queer-sound-
ing names. Naturally enough there were
a few people IN nearly every country
that took up these tongues and learn
ed them. But at best the languages
were, and are fads, and are unequal
to the great task assigned them-the
task Of becoming a world tongue.
