I would vote for "old tupi", an extinct Tupian language which was spoken by the aboriginal Tupi people of Brazil and in the early colonial period, Tupi was used as a lingua franca throughout Brazil by Europeans and aboriginal Americans. I'm probably one of the last "speakers", and probably the only one in Germany :)

- jmclnx 4y agoI was thinking as I read this. For a world wider lang. we should pick an easy to learn and pronounce extinct lang. That way everyone would have to learn a new language :) old tupi I guess is as good and any Extinct Language.
- pelasaco 4y agoThe interesting part, is that despite the fact that the language is officially dead, almost all Brazilian geography (mountains, beaches) and partially cities have until today a tupi name.
