Ido, which literally means 'offspring' in Esperanto, is an artificial language derived from Esperanto. It was introduced in 1907 as an initiative of Léopold Leau, who was a French mathematician and linguist. Ido adherents considered the language as an ever-evolving subject of study, requiring a scientific approach, and which opens a space for freedom of opinion and progress. Unlike traditional Esperantists, they did not perceive criticism as a threat to the unity of their community. The Idist movement survived the Second World War and thrived in Belgium thanks to the work of the Belgian Idist poet Andréas Juste who published a significant body of translations and writings into Ido.
