Unbelievable…
The language was created in 1887. It is not a “foreign language” it’s a language created for all citizens of the world… that is the credo of Esperanto.
How many people speak Esperanto ? About 2 millions in 150 countries. If you hope to meet one of them by chance… good luck !
I don’t know how many rules there are in French (I doubt anyone could answer that question, actually)… and that is not counting the exceptions… delightful – and countless – exceptions ????
We cannot compete with Esperanto…
But in the French K.I.S.S. Method of Dare Speak French, I have pruned all what is unnecessary to learn or remember… and reconsidered all the mistakes or approximations you will get away with 😉
