Перевод:
Латынь играла роль международного языка. Затем он потерял свое значение, и ученые начали думать о создании языка, который можно было бы использовать для международного общения. Было разработано несколько языков, но, вероятно, наиболее широко известен эсперанто. Несколько миллионов человек говорят на эсперанто, основанном на различных европейских языках. Однако он так и не стал действительно популярным в качестве международного языка.
