  • Teksto?

  • Dankon pro la belega muziko! Esperanto ne estas granda lingvo, tamem gxi restas gravega projekto! Mi deziras, ke cxiuj lernu la neuxtralan internacian lingvon!

  • I started 3 days ago to learn esperanto, today I can speak today over 300 words Esperanto, it's very easy.

  • Also I forgot to mention that Esperanto sounds goofy as hell.

  • Conlangs suck!

  • Esperanto sounds so pretty :). And the time it takes to learn it is incrdible!!! I wonder why ppl don't use it it seems very useful and a very quic language for anyone to learn

  • @MickScarborough Esperanto is still a very beneficial language to learn, providing a gateway to learning other languages. It would be rather nice to see everyone able to communicate through a universal language, still allowing for native languages to be used in individual groups, but connecting them together through language that is easy to learn and communicate with.

    Also, its fun, and there is no reason not to learn it.

  • @agarrett707 my feelings exactly :)

  • Mi kongratulas: /watch?feature=player_embedded­&v=DInoPyj8Rzg

  • Tre bono! Mi iris priserĉi tiu kanto kaj ĉiu temp ĉu tiu filmo en malsama tubo. Freneza kiel tie nur unu filmo. Viva Esperanto!

  • It would seem to me that the grammatical basis of any international language would be Mandarin. It has a grammar that is so elegantly simple and naturally intuitive that it can be learned in one sitting. Nevertheless, Esperanto was a noble idea, but was supplanted by the de facto use of English and appears to be only a hobby. Are there any "native" Esperanto speakers that don't mainly rely on another language?

  • @cupwithhandles I heard there are about 1,000 to 10,000 people who speak Esperanto as their native language. So it's far from common, but they do exist.

  • What a beautiful language. Funny how a language could simply just be invented just like that. It sounds slightly like Italian.

  • @dirtynuke In fact, it has many latin words. That's why it sounds like Italian (:

  • @Sikian Ĝi enhavas multajn vortojn el la latinidaj lingvoj, sed malmultaj el Latino mem (sed, tamen, dum, iuj sciencaj terminoj ktp, sed ne multe preter tio).

  • @Sikian Listen to the Mexican National Anthem it has the same melodic theme and harmonic structure!!!

  • @dirtynuke Inventitaj lingvoj antaŭvenas Esperanton de miloj da jaroj.

  • I have been in school for over 13 years. And NO teacher has EVER mentioned Esperanto. I just now learnt of this language that is possibly goi to unite the globe!

  • A good idea that went nowhere.

  • I'm learning Esperanto. :)

    So beautiful...

  • I wish every country would make Esperanto their official language.

  • @atzel62 forgive my "suspicious" quietness.. the way youtube records comments, it's difficult to see the order things come in unless you go to the video itself.. and I never do, I just click the comments link in the e-mails, hehe..

    Any way.. good trolling sir. I realize now that you were doing it for the lulz, and I didn't catch it. Your Trier university study is indisputable, and your expertise in the field, in addition to undisputable wikipedia facts, have swayed me. Good day.

  • @atzel62 Well who am I to argue with a linguist. Your title means you must obviously know better than I do.

    However, you are picking and choosing your "facts" from wikipedia. Just prior to your undisputed fact is another undisputed fact, by your definition, which says something completely different. Following it, another undisputed fact that it is impossible to state the number of speakers. Fact doesn't mean quote, or opinion. Stating something untestable is a fact is.. rather silly, at best.

  • @atzel62 So the "undisputed fact" you mentioned is a reference to a Finnish esperantist who just added a zero to each number when doing his estimates? Sweet appeal to authority, brah.

    Not that I think there's some Atlantian society hidden somewhere with 20,000,000 esperanto speakers.. I just don't think people citing "hard facts" for something immeasurable contributes anything. It's pretty obvious you have some grudge against the language, for who knows what reason.

  • @atzel62 I couldn't find the 0.1% "fact" you mentioned.. although the wiki entry does say between 10,000 and 2,000,000 fluent speakers worldwide.. so, if only 0.1% of students achieve fluency, you're saying that 1 million to 2 billion people have studied it? That seems.. pretty ridiculous. I think you made the number up.

  • @atzel62 Everything has room for improvement, and if we were to continually try to change and alter Esperanto into something different, the language would be split and become useless with few speakers, as what happened with Ido. It has a basic system that works fine now, and with its roots, new words are quite easy to form. I see no need to change it.

  • @atzel62 I think it's still the best choice for an international auxiliary languages from a purely logical standpoint. Also, I think the fact that it has a bit of history will help it's popularity more than it will damage it.

  • @atzel62 I consider Esperanto to be the best auxiliary language because: - It has BY FAR the most speakers of any aux-lang - It is close in vocabulary a few major languages(Spanish and English) - Even though it's old, it's still a very easy-to-learn language that is logical and not too long. - It was made with a good message. One that people can rally behind.

    I don't think supporting Esperanto is, as you say, "dreaming of the glory of yesteryear", [cont.]

  • Esperanto woan evrüpa leysanenki karemu'y is dürina leysane'y woanşaink kitel is. Ni to esperanto gaat questido omano volapükes ni suge'y arite xo dürina leysane'y löur ferasnote?

  • Where is Esperanto? I can't find it on a map.

  • All hail the glorious nation of Esper!

  • Tre bone

  • Ja tre bela kaj ŝatinda estas La Espero, tamen iom malnova kaj kun pezaj adasismoj anstataŭ veraj rimoj. Ĉu iu deziras proponi freŝan himnon sen "movo de marŝa milito"?

  • İkome leysaneme la leysane'y towk.

  • This language allows all people from around the world to communicate and suck ma' ballz in many cultural ways

  • @jayxmenendez I lol´d. hard.

  • @jayxmenendez i can use english way more than esperanto

  • @jayxmenendez It's for Romance languages and Greek speakers. English contains a tremendous amount grammatical inaccuracies I highly doubt they will incorporate our words except for commercial purposes. 

  • Comment removed

  • @jayxmenendez The reason why people want to learn English is because of technology and commerce.

  • @n64wilbert Esperanto estas bona saltotabulo al la angla.

  • @jayxmenendez Good point. So how would you say what you've written in Esperanto? "Los sproka enlabla whole mena.....planeto speako....ummm....suck balloj mina....?" well, it would be something like that. I'm sure with those key words + some relevant body language I could make pretty clear what I wanted to happen when engaging a newfound international acquaintance.

  • @jayxmenendez So does English

  • @jayxmenendez People can't keep saying it allows everyone in the world to communicate. It's offensive and insulting. There are more languages outside of the Western-European structure, ( such as my native Chinese), and Esperanto factually does not take into account any of it.

  • @GPNYishai Hey buddy!! its A ok!!! I belive that the Cultural Diversity is one of the most important things in our Global Socity...Im just tripping....in the Fact that Esperanto Sucks Ballz... and its ok to make fun of it with out offending anybody. Because Esperanto doesn't belong to anybody...So Cheers Mate!...have a Laugh

  • @jayxmenendez how does it suck balls? I has every element of a natural language, it allows for flexible word creation, has more flexible and easier syntax than English, and uses pronunciation that is common to all languages, so it's easy to understand accents. Plus, this language puts every peoples on equal ground language wise.

  • The chat, message and social networks are challenging Zamenofh´s belief that a common language will unite and brother people. Just take a look at how chilean, argentinians, mexicans, hondurans, salvadoreasn are quarreling about football and in about everything. They had a chance to cleverly insult their brother countries because they share the same language. While quarrels with Brazilians almost do not exist, because the language barrier.

  • Esperanto estis farata pro kunigi popolojn de la Mondo. Zamenoph kredis ke lingva malsameco kauxzis kverelojn inter malsamaj popoloj. Sed, Youtubo nun faras kverelojn inter popoloj ke parolis la saman lingvon. Brazilanoj kaj meksikanoj ne kverelas multe pri ilia piedpilko teamoj, ne insulti iujn a la iujn, char ili ne povas intershangxi komentojn, ili ne parolas saman lingvon. Sed, malameco estas keskanta inter Meksiko, Argentino kaj Peruo, ktp, char ili povas samalingve insulti.

  • sounds like a college fight song!

  • 에스페란토를 세계로 폅시다!!!!

    저는 에스페란토를 어제부터 시작했는데 그건 아주 즐거운 언어인 줄 알아요.

    소리도 유럽의 언어 같은 느낌 받고 굉장해요.

    또 정말 배우기 쉬운 언어이에요.

  • Mi ŝatas la kanton.

  • :) cool

    were can i get the notes? (score)

    for this arrengement ?

  • La vortoj de la kanto estas bonaj. La kantado estas bona, sed me preferus alian

    melodion se eble.

    Johano Pasero  Usono

  • its expresso

    :)

  • ....I find that Esperanto obviously sounds like a romance language. The lack of tones and the amount of and the pronunciation of vowels rules it out even as a germanic language.

  • @magical11 I don't think anyone will argue with you; it definitely does sound like a romance language, albeit with moderate Slavic and Germanic flavors. The point isn't to make the language sound unlike any natural languages, obviously then it would sound unnatural. I suppose Zamenhof chose to base it of romance languages because they are the most widely spoken languages in the world.

  • @johanthepirate "Romance"? Don't you mean "roman"?

  • @YTMrVulcan Probably not, and if he does then he's wrong. "Romance" is the correct term for the branch of the Indo-European language family that is descended from Latin (e.g. Italian, Romanian, Portuguese etc.)

  • @Sandafluffoid I didn't know that. Eh...mi ne sciis...gxin?

  • Mi malŝparis mian tempon per lerno de ĉi tiu lingvo ĉar esperantistoj ĉiam babilas pri nenio. Kaj la esperantaro malmulte verkas tiel ili faros novajn aĵojn. Pigra teda aro. Malinspira.

  • Sounds kinda funny

  • Ethnocentricity will prevent esperanto from ever being a viable language.

  • @MickScarborough That, and the fact that it derives way to much from European languages. If a truly international language is to be considered, it must a) contain sounds that are present in most major languages (the five basic vowels, for example) and b) have a fairly-even pool of words derived from languages, and c) must have syllable-construction that would be easy for speakers of the major languages to pronounce (like consonant-vowel), with only -n as a syllable-final.

  • @MickScarborough Mi scias multajn azianojn kaj afrikanojn, kiuj povas flue uzi ĝin.

  • @MickScarborough

    Two million disagree with you.

  • @RedSoxForObama The other 5,998,000,000 billion agree.

  • @gsonnenf

    1. Learn some basic multiplication.

    2. Really, you're saying that there are 5.9 BILLION Esperanto-haters in the world? Really? Nope. It's there is a tiny minority of genuine Esperanto-skeptics and billions who either haven't heard of it or are indifferent. Those who genuinely dislike Esperanto are in the tiny minority.

  • @RedSoxForObama Lol, no sense of humor.

  • Man, I seriously want to learn this langauge, but I don't really know where to go to start. Any suggestions?

  • @Kingnothing8585 just type esperanto into a search engine and start from there, thery're tons of stuff on line. lernu is a good place to start.

  • @yogi21thebear Thanks for the tip. Appreciate it

  • @Kingnothing8585 Download software called Kurso de Esperanto.

  • @Tetsuya20295 And where might I find that? BTW- thanks for replying.

  • @Kingnothing8585 type in kurso de esperanto in google

  • esperanto estas bona lingvo kaj ankaŭ ni estas bona socio :)

  • mi parolas esperanto!!!!

  • Yeh Esperanto!

  • Fun Fact!:Esperanto means in Esperanto one who hopes. That why the language is called Esperanto. It kinda like if English was called in English Hope.

  • loĝas longe esperanto

  • pli ol iam ajn, ni bezonas tiun internacian lingvon ! kaj neniel GLOBISH kiu ruinigas homaron en la profundeco de nia esto...

    Sincere

  • BELLÍSIMO el Himno de los esperantistas!!

  • Esperanto estas fekaĵo - kiom da tempo mi malŝparis por lerni ĝin?

  • LERNU ESPERANTON!

  • nice anthem, but kinda strange

  • You can learn the language easily, just google the phrase "lernu esperanto".

  • @MrBrandini Or just "Lernu".

  • Oh man, I sooooo want to learn this language ! I'm still searching for someone to give me lessons though...

  • @VulleJumper , I learned it very quickly on the Wikiversity, it is a very simple language. Normally, in three hours, you can begin to speak and in one week, you can speak fluently.

  • @VulleJumper Use lernu.net :)

  • Mmmm...Me gusta el esperanto pero su himno no tiene ritmo.

  • kiom de vi estas lernanta ĉi tiu eĉ se vi aŭdis Wulf parol ĝi sur Danny Fantoma?

    once again sorry, still learning lol. i love this language!

  • Comment removed

  • saluton amikoj! mi ne komprenas tio. im still learning.i cant wait to be able to speak it well.

  • Fiku vian globalistan comunistan fekajxon! - If you want it.

    But, do not forget: Cionist and Communist movement has expropiated our ambitions in the more than 100 years history. I do not belong to any extremities. Our destination is keep (or create an international communication between nations). We want keep our national languages too. We Hungarian Esperantists too. In our "mutilated Hungary", and beyond too...

  • saluton ^^

  • Disigi la murojn de miljaroj:-)))

  • This is sung by a Dutch choir, I love it :)

  • saluton... la himno estas tre bona

  • is this spainsh?

  • It's Esperanto!

    :-)

  • where to learn this langague online i was in singapore and i want to learn can anyone help

  • lernu(.)net

  • En la mondon venis nova sento. En jaro de 1906 Ady Endre skribis: "La afero de Esperanto estas (ankaux) hungara afero. Nia lingvoscio estas tre mez-malforta, tiel ni devus lerni multajn lingvojn. Sed gxi ne estas eble sen Esperanto.

  • Me place multo imnus esperanto chiar si nu entend goal de quest lingua

  • Por mi tiu kanto reprezentas la desiron de la homaro vivi kune en paco and la desiron havi komunan internacian lingvon.

  • Mi amas esperanton!

  • this is what happens when you let the lithuanians out of their cages

  • lol. i'm esperantist, i speak esperanto and all but i find this funny.

  • How do you say that in Esperanto?

  • Mi estas esperantista, mi babilas esperanton kaj mi pensas que ĉi-tio estas amuza. :)

  • What the fuck? How does speaking one language affect everything about government, society and religion?

  • I think it does when the language "wants" to replace the original language of a country. But i definitely do not know how it can affect a religion, [ ESPERANTO IS NOT A RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT or anything !! ]

  • The flag is similar to the Andalusian flag in southern Spain, and another of Northern California (both with a green star). The sense of international unity with Esperanto (not the only artificial language) coincides with other flags of regional identity. How about the Second Vermont Rep. flag without the star but the pine of liberty used in the New England confederation of the late 18th century? And eco-environmentalist groups made a planet earth flag (no star, but a circle)like this too. +

  • Tiu ĉi himno transmisas al mi pacon. Kiam mi aŭskultas ĝin mi sentas la bonecon de Zamenhof. Kaj mi bedaŭras ke malmultaj koprenu kion signifas ĉio ĉi, tiu ĉi mondo estus estinta kaj estus plej bona mondo se tiel.

  • Flug279!

    Mi deziras al vi bonan novan jaron. Flug, cxu vi estes germana? Mi estas hungara. Flugilo, kiel fliegen per etwas...

  • It's all Greek to me

    4. mi scias la vojon la suferon finigxi.

  • believe me in only 5 years Esperanto is he motherlanguega of over 500million Europeans

  • Yeah, really! There are so many people speaking it now, that it may just become the one and only language

  • I agree that English rules, but it's waaay too hard to learn

  • try to learn it from speaking other lenguage... see who is really the idiot...

  • La vero estas ke esperanto MALbezonas la himnon, la flagon ktp. Ili estas nur simboloj de la fermiteco de la esperanta parolantaro, ech de ghia siaspeca naciecismo. Esperanto bezonas ESTI UZATA en vera vivo. Ghi devus esti ILO, kaj ne celo. Bedaurinde oni tro ofte igas ghin nur objekto de stranga kulto kaj ghi uzighas nur interne de centoj da organizajhetoj esperantistaj. Bonvolu viziti interpopolalingvo punkto inf punkto hu, la retejo kiu al mi alportis vere grandan ekkomprenon.

  • Vivu Esperanto!

  • Vivu la Homaron? Ne, ne, ne ;D Vivu la Omaron XD ŝerco... Evidente vivu Esperanton kaj Esperantistojn. Poemo "La Espero" estas tre bela ; D

  • Do you have a reason?

  • So? Although synthetic, it is still spoken and allows people of different nationalities to converse more easily. Just because it has no history, you don't think it should be spoken? The language's history is being written right now.

  • w0rd.

  • @Born2killx Why not learn a useful language to allow different nationalities to converse, like English... not something pointless like Esperanto?

  • @CPRailRTC Because English is difficult? My mother has been learning English for one month, 4 hours a day. I have been learning Esperanto for two hours, and I have, in Esperanto, the same level she has in English.

    But you do have a point. (Almost) no one speaks Esperanto -> it's useless -> nobody wants to learn it -> nobody speaks it (because they haven't learnt it) -> it's useless -> nobody learns it [...]

  • @omarnug If only some authority would start using Esperanto... I think the last hope of the language is the EU adopting it as their main international language, but the guys there probably prefer the status quo of having English as the de facto international language. One thing is certain: If no authority starts using Esperanto, no-one will.

  • @doom032 Hi , I'm writing from italy. In europe CEE spend more than 1200 million euro (1,2 billion a year9 only to translate from each of the 23 languages to the other 22 and this for every single language so 22x23 times each document. Esperanto could be a very usefoul way to solve this question. there are a lot of reasons to teach and learn esperanto but there are economic powers that don't want this

  • @CPRailRTC Do you think it's just for everyone that isn't English-native to learn English, while English-natives don't really have to study any other language? I don't think so. If we want a just world in which noone is better than anyone, we must learn a common new language.

    Sorry for my explanation, I'm not English-native.

  • Hm. So are Braille and International Sign Language. Guess we should tell blind and deaf people to go get a complicated, illogical, national language - they're communicating too easily!

  • Vivu Esperanton!! Vivu Eûropon!! Vivu la Homaron!

  • Ni bezoni unuiginta Europo ankau politike tre baldau!!! Mi lancu alvokon: ni komencu utiligi esperantan lingvon, ni Komencu enamigi de speranta lingvo.

  • Iancu, mi kredas, se vi estas esperantisto, vi ne estas membro de la PRM. :-)))

    Longe vivu Esperanto! Estas jam normalaj homoj en la mondo.

  • Nice. Would love to be able to speak Esperanto.  Do any of you good people have any advice?

  • I recommend the book "Teach yourself Esperanto" by John Cresswell and John Hartley. Do a little bit every day for a few weeks and you'll practically be fluent, it's so easy to pick up. I also recommend finding some internet forums where you can chat to others in Esperanto, and especially Second Life where there is a thriving Esperanto community!

  • Thank you Sermoa. That is very helpful. Best wishes from Scotland all who speak Esperanto.

  • Vivu esperanto!

    La mondo= una grandan rondan familion!!!!!

  • Jes ja! Longe vivu Esperanto!!

  • Belo hino este hino esperantista.

    Ele mostra que os esperantistas não só querem uma democracia lingüística, como também relações de paz e fraternidade entre os povos.

    ---

    Belega himno, tiu de la e-istaro.

    Ĝi montras, ke la e-istaro ne nur celas la lingvan demokration, sed ankaŭ pacajn kaj fratecajn rilatojn inter la popoloj.

  • Jes, vivu esperanto la frata internacia lingvo !

  • En la mondon venis nova sento,

    Tra la mondo iras forta voko;

    Per flugiloj de facila vento

    Nun de loko flugu ĝi al loko.

    Ne al glavo sangon soifanta

    Ĝi la homan tiras familion:

    al la mond' eterne militanta

    Ĝi promesas sanktan harmonion.

    VIVU ESPERANTO!
