Why Ido?

Ido is basically a planned language, created at the beginning of the
20th. century aiming to solve the problem of international
communication. But let's explain better what the problem of
international communication is: if I want to communicate with a
Frenchman, I'll have to study French, if I want to communicate with
a German, I will also have to study his language, and so on, so that
if I wanted to communicate with all citizens of the European Union,
I'd need to know at least twenty different languages!

A first solution would be that we all studied the same language, so
that apart from our own mother tongue, we had to know only one more.
This would be the auxiliary language, which would help us understand
each other. For different reasons, this language has been chosen to
be English, but, how many of us have been studying this language for
years, and are yet incapable of understanding a film in its original
version, or of reading an English newspaper? Learning English well
requires a lot of time, and a certain skill. Wouldn't it be better
if that auxiliary language were not English? Wouldn't it be better
if that language were much easier to learn than English or any other
language is? Well, that language exists and it is Ido. It is a
language that came up as a reform of Esperanto, Ido was developed by
a team of scientists and linguists for several years and the resutl
was a language that is the most practical ever invented.

Undoubtedly, Ido is easier to learn than any national language, in a
matter of a month of study, you can understand the best part of
texts written in Ido. Give it a try! Learn Ido now, and you'll meet
a lot of people who share this project!
