Esperanto is a constructed language that has native speakers.

Recorded sources
7 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Esperanto is a constructed language that has native speakers?

Yes. One peer-reviewed conference paper states that Esperanto, published in 1887 by Zamenhof, is the most successful constructed language and has speakers around the globe and even native speakers. Several other sources confirm only that Esperanto is a constructed language in active use, without addressing native speakers.
