A Firm, For Instance, That Does Business

As A Matter Of Fact, A National Language Which Spreads Beyond Its Own Confines Very Quickly Loses Much Of Its Original Richness Of Content And Is In No Better Case Than A Constructed Language.

A Standard International Language Should Not Only Be Simple, Regular, And Logical, But Also Rich And Creative.

So Far As The Advocates Of A Constructed International Language Are Concerned, It Is Rather To Be Wondered At How Much In Common Their Proposals Actually Have, Both In Vocabulary And In General Spirit Of Procedure.

National Languages Are All Huge Systems Of Vested Interests Which Sullenly Resist Critical Inquiry.

These Examples Of The Lack Of Simplicity In English And French, All Appearances To The Contrary, Could Be Multiplied Almost Without Limit And Apply To All National Languages.
