Comparison between Ido and Interlingua

Both have had some measure of success, but Interlingua has enjoyed greater diffusion and acceptance by public and private institutions—it is taught in many high schools and universities, for example.

When Interlingua adopts foreign words, however, they frequently retain their original form.

Both languages make use of an objective procedure to identify international words for their lexicons.

Wordforms can enter the vocabulary of Interlingua by derivation from a small number of roots and affixes.

Both languages use the Latin alphabet, but Ido orthography is such that based on the spelling of a word, you can pronounce it unambiguously.
