An artificial language, intended to be universal, devised by
Dr. Zamenhof, a Russian, who adopted the pseudonym ``Dr.
Esperanto'' in publishing his first pamphlet regarding it in
1887. The vocabulary is very largely based upon words common
to the chief European languages, and sounds peculiar to any
one language are eliminated. The spelling is phonetic, and
the accent (stress) is always on the penult. --
