I grew up in #Friesland, in the north of the Netherlands. There we interact mainly in our own Frisian language, while the rest of the country speaks Dutch and or some dialects.

To me it is still the easiest to interact in my native language, but also comfortable in Dutch, English and less in German and even more less in French. 1/2

But I think it would be a great improvement if people all over the world would start to learn one universal language, next to their native one(s).

This will make it easier to understand each other and maybe prevent and stop stupid, future wars.

Hope to hear your opinions.

While I'm all for neutral bridge languages, #esperanto in particular, I think the only impact would be some more understanding and cultural interchange, but that's it.

Stupidity and corruption through power would remain.

It's a human nature problem, not a language problem.
