Episode 5
English is a global language that has evolved over hundreds of years.
But it is not the only global language, and this week we're looking at Esperanto, a language created in 1887.
To find out more about Esperanto, Intermediate English spoke to Evildea, one of the top Esperanto Youtubers. He reveals the surprising story of the world's most-spoken constructed language, from its roots in the 19th-century Russian Empire to its growing popularity in the digital age.
Watch the full interview with Evildea here.
