We need to take our agonothetai oath during the Opening Ceremonies on Friday 08.08.08! Here's a video of me practicing, It's hard to get the Esperanto pronunciation right!

  • Multilingual oaths sound very impressive indeed. Maybe some of us could take tape themselvers while taking the oath in groups, where each member of a group uses a different language?

  • Not bad. Only thing that really stood out were the words with the diacritic letters ĉ ĝ ĵ ŝ and so on. For Ĉ and Ŝ, just add an english h sound, making Ch and Sh. So words like ĉe and ŝi sound like che and Shee. The Ĝ and Ĵ become soft. Ĝe should sound like an english J, and Ĵ should sound like the 'zh' sound in the word 'pleasure'. Ĝis should sound like Jees, and aĵo, should sould like azhoh.
