Do you think there should be a language that everybody speaks like a universal language? Why or why not.

I would love to globalize the world and destroy culture to make an utopian society, but its too much work

English exists. And there're a lot of phrases/idioms in a certain language that cannot be translated into another without losing some of its meaning because of cultural reasons. So one language for all seems like a no-no for me

Please look up Esperanto
Also screw any other IAL besides Volapuk or anything after Novial because they were all basically the same thing

if we just think of the idea excluding how realistic it is (so no need to look up esperanto), Yes

I will never have to drop mangas because it wasn't fully translated ever again

English is already world's lingua franca. A lot of scientific, technical, or otherwise professional terms are in english and to suddenly change that would be chaos
