150 hours of Esperanto vs a 40 icon T-shirt

My friends said that that was a bright idea, but I held contrary to their views.



If 40 icons can represent almost entire speech in the communication, we just need to learn 40 sentences.

Besides, how would the T-shirt icon telling the blind ?

When you agreed to that and you travel the world, you need how many dozens of those T shirts ? You do not dirty the shirt and need a change ?

Besides, the lady would have more problems when pointing to the breast and this might make the wrong information.  Ladies, would you like to take the risk ?

More than 60 years ago, UNESCO recommended Esperanto but it was not respected by almost all the member countries. The UNWTO made a declaration 35 years ago to the tourism industry to use Esperanto but again, it was ignored. Only Cambodia has the Esperanto tourism group in the ASEAN region and a handful in other places in the world

If you want to invite misunderstanding by using these icons, go ahead. A wise person would not take that risk.

If you want travel round the world easy without communication problem, promote Esperanto. You need less than 150 hours of learning Esperanto.
