I'd hesitate to qualify Esperanto in this way, particularly in light 
of the great success Esperanto has enjoyed in Hungary, China and 
Japan, places where the prevailing language is not Indo-European.

The lowering of the barrier is accomplished mainly through the highly 
flexible system of affixes.
