There are AF members in all parts of the world and yet I see that all of us manage to communicate with each other in the English language. So it got me thinking, should there be a universal language?
If so, which one should it be? Or should be create a whole new language?
Which language would be more practical?
Should we use symbols we have right now (such as the letters I am using to write this message) or should we create entirely new ones? $%#$@%#@$%#$

I think that since a lot of people already speak English or are being taught English in school, perhaps maybe English should be the universal language. Though it is the hardest language to learn especially when you get older.
The language that is most prominent is probably Chinese (I forget if its Mandarin or Cantonese) so it would make more sense but thats only cause China has a bigger population.
It would be cool to create a whole new iconography and language but it takes years to develop a successful language (just look at the English language history) so it would be better off to use some that we have currently.
Also it has to be a language that allows a fairly easy way to make words, sort of like German.
