    "I wonder if it might not be a good time to introduce an auxiliary language into the world ..."

    Let's hope it's not English !!
    Can you imagine the difficulty a non English 1st language student has with the above type of ambiguous English expression.
    Eg if we take the above literally, it says you are actually suggesting this may not be a good time to introduce an auxilliary language, whereas I know you are using the English upper class silliness of using a negative expression to actually say the opposite.

    The English have a lot to answer for regarding their treatment of English !
    Not to mention their preoccupation with dozens of different bits of cutlery.
