jacquesdehe | [LFN] Re: Is LFN evolving a lot ?

Esperanto is far more than a hundred years old,

but Lingua Franca Nova is just in its prime infancy.

In my opinion, if LFN must be a constructed language

to be taken seriously as an international auxiliary language,

as you say, it must first go on completing

its necessary vocabulary.

Personally I see LFN as a space of creation moderated

by its creator.

Regards,

Jacques
