Esperanto: What do you know about it?

Post by SGSW »

Well I have just heard about it a short while ago.

So what I am asking is if you ever heard about it and what do you know about it.

Can you speak it? And so on.

I will provide a little more details after I get a few answers

In the meanwhle enjoy and reveal thy knowledge

Esperanto is Dot's answer to Pitkin's tea. After having had enough tea propaganda shoved in his face, Dot, hero of teh People, took it upon himself to devise a coffee-flavoured concoction. Originally a simple mix of espresso and varoius dodgy additives, Dot took his drink past preliminary stages and made it alcoholic. A big hit with the kids.


Esperanto is also a language with no roots; a product of a (some) linguist(s). Knowing English and Spanish, it's not impossible for me to read. Though I think it's a better "made-up" language than Klingon, I wouldn't invest any time in learning it. =D

How's your Esperanto, SG? Years ago, I checked a "how to learn Esperanto" page for a few minutes. It's pretty straightforward.
