LEDE image

I don't think having the current Countries_with_English_as_Official_Language.png map on the LEDE is a good idea, I couldn't find the source data that was used to create it, and the map doesn't explains what the difference between unofficial vs not official is.

"acronymized"

wouldn't "IAL" be an initialism, not an acronym? does the word "initialized" work in this context, or should it be "abbreviated?" Facts-Epic (talk) 19:21, 5 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hebrew as an International Auxiliary Language?

This would apply to any language that speakers of a single religion must learn, of course, Arabic is already in this article so no need to include it. Not very familiar with others.

Hebrew is constantly used as an IAL among Jews. If a Jew doesn't speak your native language, switching to Hebrew is very common. Perhaps there should be a section for this sort of thing among other faiths too. Very very interesting if you consider that this was originally supposed to be the purpose of Esperanto (IAL for Jews) before Hebrew was revived. Haplodiploid75 (talk) 15:00, 17 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps a purpose of Esperanto, but Doktoro Esperanto said he was motivated by the friction between ethnic groups (including Jews among others) in Białystok. —Tamfang (talk) 08:03, 9 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

Independent page for Auxiliary Language?

As for now, most links that say "Auxiliary Language" are linking to this page, which isn't really appropriate. Would it be better to have an independent page for "Auxiliary Language" which lists different kinds of auxiliary languages, such as International auxiliary language, Zonal auxiliary language, or even interspecific ones like Yerkish?
