Because it doesn't have a word for "Spam."
So what is Esperanto for Spam?
Johannes
They probably had hoped to avoid it and thus omitted it from the
language. :-)
One English-Esperanto dictionary web-site which boasts 15,500 terms
returned this result:
Result of search for "Spam": No matching entries found.
Oh well, that just proves my point that Esperanto will never succeed in
Hawaiian until it expands its vocabulary to include the word spam. :-)
