If the whole world had to speak one language, which (current or new) language will be most appropriate, and why?

tynamite's avatar This question is best answered with the process of elimation.

Any language that has multiple genders for single words or grammatical gender would be rejected!
Any language that doesn't use alphabetic characters would be rejected!
Any language that limits direction giving to only compass directions or only left/right relative directions!

So now we are left with Finnish, Hungarian, Persian, and other languages which I've missed out. Somebody else can help me choose between those ones.

What's an assertion, and what should I type in?

Compesh is a question and answer (and debate) website, so before you make a debate, you better learn what an assertion is. I suppose you already know what a question is, and that you've typed it in the box. ;)

An assertion, is basically a statement you can make, that is either true or false.

Richer people have better health.

The question for that would be, Do richer people have better health?

And don't forget to make your assertion, match your question.
