Here I show that Chinese without the characters (aka Pinyin) is even easier than Esperanto - you can learn to read it in just 5 minutes.

Mi ankaŭ lernetis la ĉinan (mandarinan) Lingvon kaj mi pensas, ke Vi iom pravas. La ĉina gramatiko facilega estas. Sed oni ne uzipovas tiun Lingvon internacie (ankaŭ en la malproksimorientaj Landoj tio ne eblas), ĉar ĝi havas la samajn kaj eĉ pli Malfacilajhoj ol Esperanto (ekz. la ĉapelitaj Literoj kaj la internacian bazas sur pli facile rekogneblaj Vortoj).

Konstrui vortojn en la ĉina similas al Esperanto, kaj unu ol kreiantoj de "pinyin" ja estis Esperantisto. Mi pensas ke ĉiuj helplingvoj similas, kaj ĉiuj ol tiuj mi vere volus studi.

Ian, this is excellent. This would help make Putonghua [Mandarin Chinese] an auxiliary language or lingua franca in east Asia and elsewhere. Using characters has the "benefit" of STOPPING people from using "Putonghua". Using Pinyin more and more would open up China. I doubt the powers that be really want to open up China that much. Characters are user-hostile, making for a bad effort-to-benefit ratio. It's the Pinyin way, or no way, Jose!
