RF can be considered as a model for the real world, since we have members from all over the world...
I think we are living peacfully dispite our very different perspectives...
Some where in RF, I posted that if 90% of the world joind RF (may be in 2167 or something!), the world will be a peacfull place to live in!

Come on now, there is only one language worth considering if you require something more romantic, and that is Italian. Read a shopping list in Italian and it will sound romantic! German seems to be regarded as about the least romantic language, but this is probably being rather unfair.

I would also like to give an example with Iraq..
Iraqi people are speaking the same language, but see how they are killing each other now...Language has nothing to do with it

The fact that someone speaks the same language as me has never alone endeared me to them.

Spanish is supposedly the easiest of the Romance languages to learn. Still I do like English, interesting language which reflects the mongrel background of most English-Speaking nations.

A quote which about sums it up :
Quote:
"The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways, beat them
unconscious and rifled their pockets.
As for Latin: Te audire no possum. Musa sapientum fixa est in aure.

I had trouble deciding whether this should be in the debate or discuss area...


I think that if we had a single world language, we would likely feel more as if we were all the same people (brothers and sisters) and tend less towards violence.

Do you think different languages divide us and make peace more difficult, would a single world language make the world more peaceful?

Would a single world government be better?
I don't think language has a lot to do with stuff. But creating a universal language would cause people to lose important ties to their heritage and culture.

No, Romanian beats Italian hands down. It has a similar sound but without that rather irritating staccato - altogether softer and smoother. Of course, inflicting Daco-Latin grammar on the world would not be something many would thank me for.

Do you think if we all shared the same language, that our cultures/governments/borders would all mix as well as a natural consequence?
