    Google mobile phone or Esperanto

    Although I wish Google well, I can't help feeling that they have bitten off more than they can chew here.

    I favour the non-technological solution to overcoming language barriers, namely, wider use of Esperanto. Esperanto is tried and tested. Google's new phone is not.

    Esperanto

    Bill Chapman is right.

    Why not look long term and have a spoken international language, used on a person-to-person basis. :)

    So we seem to be back to Esperanto here. Just have a look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2LPVcsL2k0

    Dr Kvasnak teaches English at Florida Atlantic University.

    A glimpse of Esperanto can be seen at http://www.lernu.net

    Technological solutions to non-technical problems

    Is this really the answer? Or even a good answer?

    This sounds to me like yet another case of trying to implement a technological solution to a non-technical problem. It's worth asking whether this is really the right approach.

    How well is this going to work trying to chat up a girl in a foreign bar, on a foreign beach or on the bus?

    How well is this going to work to negotiate an informal agreement, striking a deal in the corridor, or mutually feeling out one's opposite number around the coffee table?

    And how sure can you really be that the technology has conveyed the meaning - let alone connotation and nuance - you wanted to get across?

    It should also be considered how well this is - or isn't - going to allow for privacy, in a world where e-mail is already routinely scanned and indexed by both commercial and government entities (including Google itself, and the US and the Chinese governments, just for starters).

    Re:Technological solutions to non-technical problems

    Would you trust this system when negotiating an important business deal, consulting on legal matters, etc?

    Perhaps something like Esperanto - which has been around for well over a century and shown to work quite well in practice - deserves a fresh look.
