Esperanto, Anyone?

I'm putting together a couple of fans this morning (everyone warned me to buy fans before it gets hot--last summer when Europe had its terrible heat wave, there were no fans to be found anywhere). The Swiss fan has instructions in German, French and Italian (but not English)--this is pretty standard for Swiss products. The other fan, however, has instructions in 18 languages: English (yeah!), German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Portugese, Italian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Greek, Turkish, Russian, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, and Arabic. (But no Lithuanian, Latvian, Slovenian?)
