Mandarin
>why
It's one of the most beautiful languages on earth.

No bias here.

Esperanto, so we all have to learn something.

Latin
>neutral in the sense that it doesn't belong to any current country
>has a great number of texts already
>patrician as fuck

C

Artificial language based on fuzzy logic with as unambiguous syntax as possible.

English is the only answer, we are already taking over the Nordic countries. Embrace the Anglosphere.

Greek for its historical value and symbolism.

British English as a practical choice.

Esperanto

fuckerino lo memeino languageino*

*to be read in the most nasal and obnoxious voice possible

kek I don't know a lick of Esperanto but if we have to learn one, why not make it artifical?

Designing conlangs is a fun passtime but let's be honest most of them are shit, and few are as shit as Esperanto, the original meme language. It's like a wind-up toy pidgin of Italian and Czech that is impossible to take seriously, and it's only made better by the asspain displayed by Esperantists on the Internet when you point this out.

There are over 100k characters in Chinese.Stupid people like Africans and Americans won't be able to learn it.

Latin

Eternal anglo detected

Most Chinese don't know Mandarin in its entirety either.

And they're just as stupid.

Por lo menos el español es una lengua útil y muy extendida, a diferencia de "lo idiomino ridikulinoj de pakotillojovn" hablado por cuatro autistas

If dubs we all learn ithkuil

My friend,you should read up on this thing called Reading Comprehension and IQ

Lingua latina est neutra, pulchra et facilis; magnum numerum librorum habet.

Recte, lingua latina non est ardua, ut saepe affirmant, neque molestia.

english of course.

>using a logographic writing system in 2017
>intelligent

>IQ
China basis it's test results on a few major cities.

Your either mainland Chinese or you've never dealt with them (which would be impossible).

Traditore della patria

I'm Singaporean.We put all our students through an IQ test,so its accurate

English because it's superior to literally every other language.

So you're British.
