What is Esperanto?
Esperanto is the easy-to-learn language devised by Dr. L.L. Zamenhof, of
Warsaw, Poland, at the end of the 19th Century. Zamenhof saw the need
for the peoples of the world to be able to transcend the barriers of

between language communities.

No. It is a neutral bridge-language between people of different
language communities.
