You may consider learning Esperanto. Esperanto ([ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]) is the most widely spoken constructed international language and is really easy to learn.
Check "lernu" ([ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]) for a free gateway to the world of Esperanto.

Esperanto is designed to be an "international" language, a second language for everyone. So, if you want to speak with Greeks, or if someone from Mexico wants to speak with someone from Kuwait, there is no need to learn a lot of different languages. If we all could speak Esperanto besides our own mother tongue, then it would be so much easier to communicate and share ideas and friendship.
There are many other constructed international languages but Esperanto's advantages are basically two:
1. It is a neutral language, being the property of no particular group of people and therefore the equal property of everybody.
2. It is relatively easy to learn. It would appear from personal experience and anecdotal evidence that, for an English speaker, Esperanto is perhaps five times as easy to learn as Spanish, ten times as easy as Russian, and "considerably" easier than Chinese, Japanese or Arabic.

Esperanto has a number of features that make it relatively easy to learn:
1. A regular and phonetic spelling system. Where the Chinese school child must spend years learning the relationship between the spoken and written language, and the American school child must spend an almost equally long period learning to spell, the Esperanto system ("one letter = one sound") can be learned in about half an hour. This also includes a regular system of accentuation.
2. A regular and "exception-free" formal grammar. Doubters correctly insist that the grammar of any real language cannot be completely described, as Esperanto speakers sometimes claim for themselves, with a mere sixteen grammatical rules that can be written on the back of a postcard, and they are entirely correct; but what they fail to mention is that, in fact, most of the grammar, and certainly all of the most important grammar, is available in these rules. Learn eleven invariable grammatical endings and how they are used, and (with a vocabulary) you will immediately be able to invent grammatically correct, usable and useful sentences in Esperanto.
3. A regular, one-to-one and easily learned system of forming new words from words you already know. This is particularly useful because it allows you to take a fairly "small basic vocabulary" (the usual figures is about 500 items, including word-roots, particles, and affixes) and carry on long and fairly complex discussions about a wide range of topics, including technical ones. While modern Esperanto has a considerably larger overall vocabulary of unique roots (officially, about 9000 at last count), many of these are simply synonymous with words that can be formed from the most basic roots, and it is always considered acceptable (and usually elegant) to create your own words rather than borrowing somebody else's.

Esperanto speakers are estimated at between 100,000 and 2 million and it is estimated that there are about a thousand native speakers.
