As one who speaks no languages other than english,
and with only very basic knowledge of Latin cognates,
I *think* I can *almost* figure out what the writer
is saying. Tell me how close I get:

I find this language very beautiful.

I think I will write and speak this language henceforth.
> I suggest nous sprechen diese langue on extropy-chat exclusivement.
I suggest we use this language exclusively on
extropy chat.
> Certains Swiss sprechen già rumantsch que ressemble a bisschen à
l'Europanto.
It bears a vague resemblance to Swiss and the
romantic languages of Europe. Bitchin! (=good).

I FURTHER SUGGEST DEVELOPING A GROUP IN THE AMERICAS FOR
THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND THIS UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE OF EUROPE.
I FEEL LUSTFUL. (?)

If you do not understand it all, do not panic, it is perfectly
normal. It is primarily a european-based universal language:
Europanto.

Europanto is 42% English, 38% French, 15% all the rest
of the European Union languages and the remaining 5%
those who think they are speaking Latin, Greek and
vulgar Italian...jurones(?) Testacles? (?)

Har har (laughter) even one who speaks no languages can
easily speak Europanto. Do you understand why this is
important?
Estropico, how close did I get?
