After expansion, integration and federalization is complete, what should be the lingua franca to communicate with one another? Revive Latin maybe?
After expansion, integration and federalization is complete...
French, unironically.
Albanian
Portugal
English, which is already the de facto lingua franca
English. No need to make a fuzz about this.
>revive latin
God I wish, it would be so funny a whole continent talking latin.
Either french, german or English. I can go behind french and german but I know it's gonna be English and it piss me
English is already there. Most young people will speak English to some degree.
English is perfectly fine.
English comes from the european continent, the linguistic compromise between the germanic and the romance
Euro English obliviously
>Further EU enlargement
>Turkey
no thank you
Also why have only 1 language ? Having 27 like right now is way more based, and it creates a lot of jobs in translation
English, Esperanto or german. The first due to being lingua franca, the third due to beibg the moat spoken native labguage in the EU or Esperanto to be be fair so no one has any advantages learning the new language. Latin would be a tad unfair to all non romance guys, even though I had 5+ years latin.
English as a kreole language inbetween germanic and romance is well suited
Everything but english, or you just an empty "union" with no common project, and so convict to implosion.
Macedonia, Albania, Serbia, Turkey, Ukraine have applied for membership.
Macedonia and Ukraine will literally get it in 4 or 5 years.
Yes. Have schools be in the local language while parallelly learning Latin from the first grade (this is the way we learn English currently), and have all official documents bilingual, in both the local language and Latin.
There, local culture is preserved while allowing communication and administration.
Oh, and do not allow regional migration, again, to preserve local cultures.
>English as a kreole language
English is not even close to creole. It's a purely germanic language with a lot of loanwords, yes, but the grammar, pronounciation and everything else is basically germanic.
Let's do Estonian, for shits 'n giggles.
Polish, because it's the language of nobility.
But English grammar is very different from German grammar, along with the word order
>English
>Esperanto
Why Esperanto and not Latin ? European union is european, so at least let's choose an european ( and real) language
> German
Why not, with French and spanish, multilingualism is the best solution in my opinion.
>Having 27 like right now is way more based
Most people aren't smart enough to be fluent in all 27. 2/3 languages is max for the majority.
Expecting anything other than English is pure naivety though they would probably do "no official language" bs similar to USA and Japan
English already does the trick,
Esperanto has good grammar and word-making possibility. It strikes me as a good language to write in. I like it.
But, yes, better Latin, for larp potential.
Greek
Imagine the debates...
macedonian to honor the legacy of alexander
CETERUM CENSEO AMERICA DELENDA EST
lingua franca is not necessary these days
translator and speech AI is developing really fast
EST GRAECORVM DEBITVM RENVMERANT
Indeed, but this is not how you can create a sense of shared identity. Imagine proposing to a Polish girl with the use of a translator, it's not going to work.
Vía Neolatina
Latin
Is classy af
if you're proposing to a polish girl, you will probably already speak some polish, you wouldn't do it randomly, would you ?
In varietate concordia, and by diversity I mean European diversity
