An artificial international language, selected by the
``Delegation for the Adoption of an Auxillary International
Language'' (founded at Paris in 1901), made public in 1907,
and subsequently greatly revised and extended by a permanent
committee or ``Academy.'' It combines systematically the
advantages of previous schemes with a thoroughly logical word
formation, and has neither accented constants nor arbitrarily
coined pronominal words. For each idea that root is selected
which is already most international, on the principle of the
``greatest facility for the greatest number of people.'' The
word ``Ido'' means in the language itself ``offspring.'' The
official name is: ``Linguo Internaciona di la Delegitaro
(Sistema Ido).'' -- {I"dism}, n. -- {I"dist}, n.
