21 Have you ever heard about Esperanto? Where is Esperanto spoken? Read the text aloud to find out if you are right.

In 1887 a new language was invented by Dr Zamenhof, who was born in Poland. He lived a great part of his life in Russia. This new language was called Esperanto. It was a mixture of a number of European languages and it had a very simple grammar. Dr Zamenhof believed that lots of people would speak the new language as a second language. It was very easy to learn and rich enough to express thoughts and feelings.

Nowadays Esperanto is the most widely spoken artificial language in the world. Up to 2 million people speak Esperanto in 120 countries. Russia is one of the countries where Esperanto is still alive. The language is popular in Europe, East Asia and South America.

But the language has not been very popular or successful. Russia is one of the countries where Esperanto is still alive. Today only a small number of people in the world can speak it.
