Talk:Ido

message: Just a note that I don't see anywhere in the article any sort of criticism section. Esperanto has one, and since this is also a constructed language I would imagine that not everyone is pleased with every aspect of it. Sevey13 (talk) 00:26, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Criticism

message: Two items on the existing list comparing Esperanto and Ido do not seem to be differences and I recommend that they be moved from the list as I can see that this article will be consulted to try to identify such differences.  The two items are:
* Ido imposes consistent rules on the use of endings to transform a word from one meaning or part of speech to another... (Esperanto does this also).
* Ido's vocabulary attempts to use cognates ...  (As with Ido, Esperanto derives most of its roots from the European languages  -- while in a few cases different choices are made with Ido, there does not seem to be a significant enough advantagage to one choice over another to justify this being identified as a real difference.)
If others don't disagree with these differences, I will move these items to other parts of the article since they don't seem to be differences.

message: hi to all,
I wanted to ask if you can translate the following articles to ido :
1 - " גלידה מסטיק "  => (hebrew wikipedia)
2 - " Mastic (resin plant) "  => (english wikipedia)
3 - " Mastichochoria "  => (english wikipedia)
thank you, burekas (talk) 14:33, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

message: According to the pronunciation section, and what I know about the language, the pronunciation should be a simple /ˈido/, rather than /ˈiːdoʊ/. Maybe the second is the English pronunciation, so both should be added. N4m3 (talk) 21:55, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pronunciation 

message: This article says that Ido uses the same 26 letters as those in the English alphabet, but should it not say Latin alphabet,which is more commonly used term for this alphabet?ACEOREVIVED (talk) 16:52, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: "Latin alphabet" would be a bit of a misnomer because the Latin alphabet did not include the letters J, U, or W. But if we say "English alphabet" then everyone knows exactly what is meant. —Remember the dot (talk) 01:15, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

message: The figure of a couple of hundred speakers is outdated, being from 2000. I think this should be retained as it probably marks a "bottleneck population"; more or less, survivors of the pre-internet movement just before the internet was able to repopularize Ido. But, new figures would be useful. Also, are there any native Ido speakers? (There are native Esperanto speakers, and I think it's significant whether or not anyone has learned a language in the manner used by children acquiring native ability.)

message: The audio file of the Ido recitation of the "Lord's Prayer" clearly uses some different words than are given in the typed-up Ido version. Are you sure the clip is really in Ido? If it is, what explains the discrepancies, and should the transcription not be changed accordingly? Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:36, 30 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The clip is really in Ido. Evidently someone changed the text since the clip was added, causing the discrepancy. I've restored the original text. —Granger (talk · contribs) 15:35, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

message: The article said
: Ido was created in 1907 out of a desire to reform perceived flaws in Esperanto, a language that had been created for the same purpose 20 years earlier. 
Esperanto was not created "to reform perceived flaws in Esperanto", which is circular and absurd. It was created to facilitate international communication, and I have changed the text to say so. I have also linked "Esperanto", which, very strangely, was not linked. --Thnidu (talk) 21:34, 12 September 2017 (UTC)

message: Hey User:CritiquesCritics, you recently edited the page to remove a sentence saying Ido is the most successful Esperanto derivative, on the basis that it is incorrect since Ido has many less speakers than Esperanto. This is incorrect: Esperanto is not a derivative of Esperanto, so it's number of speakers is here irrelevant in relation to Ido's; the sentence here is saying it is the most successful Esperanto derivative, not the most successful international auxilliary language. Therefore, I've undone your change: if you disagree, you're welcome to respond here. Frzzl (talk) 22:37, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

message: Ðis seems like a weird fact to include, especially since it apparently needs better citations. Why is Finland in particular mentioned? IndigoGollum (talk) 03:44, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Likely because it's the only concrete example of Ido natives we have - I can't find any estimates for them globally, but it's important to acknowledge that there are native speakers in the lead (although it could certainly be better phrased)  08:05, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

message: I have sometimes seen a statement that Ido – besides meaning ‘descendant’ – is an acronym from Linguo Internaciona di la Delegitaro.  Which came first? —Tamfang (talk) 03:35, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
