 What's up guys evil dear here your God and today I'm going to teach you some Esperanto slang Now some of the words I'm going to teach you are new some old some of kind of entered mainstream and some are very on the fringes now Also since I'm teaching you slang a lot of Esperanos are not going to like some of these words because they don't like the idea of Slaying in general because you got to remember Esperanos originally created to be a secondary language for everyone and slang kind of goes against that Ideal but you will still see slang used a lot in Esperano, especially amongst youth and younger speakers because Slang just evolves it just happens if a language grows big enough. It's going to have slain so let's let's Learn some words now Shall we and we're going to do this by imagining that we're going to go to this random Esperano Congress in my head And finally enough I've never been to an Esperano Congress So I'm probably the worst person world to teach you slang But anyway the first one when you rock up to the Congress or a meeting Let's say you enter and there's going to be two scenarios You're going to walk in the music and pump it going to see people dancing people are going on and you're going to go This is an awesome Atmosphere I love the vibe here or you're going to walk in and it's going to look like a funeral home And I'll be one person standing up at the front talking about how Esperanos the greatest language in the world Everyone else would be asleep in a chair It'll be one of those two but you're going to talk about the atmosphere now This is one of those words that started out and had original meaning of say environment and atmosphere But then it kind of Adopted the secondary meaning to mean a vibe of a event Okay, so it is a toss-off and you'll see this word quite a lot now even in Big magazines and stuff like that in Esperano. It's ended mainstream. So it toss-off means Atmosphere of a event. Okay, so if you want to say, oh, yeah, it was a great vibe a great atmosphere You'd say bonner a toss-off or bonnig a toss-off whatever The next thing you might want to say is it's a cool event or it's an uncool event and cool is more Yosha And you're probably going where did that word come from more Yosha is actually Three initials added into one word. It started out as Moderna You know still or and then it went to more Yosha and then more Yosha Okay, next word when you go to the event You're even gonna go alone like a loner like me or you're gonna bring someone along say your babe And the word for babe is canaño and it's actually the word canabino cut down or canabon It doesn't really matter cut down with the pet suffix no the female version added on so you'd say canaño Say for your babe, and I think that originally first appeared in Esperano though I could be wrong through chubi volas danzi and that is do you want to dance the song from Yomo? Next while you're at an Esperano then obviously you're gonna meet Esperanto speakers Esperantistoy Esperante Paralanto, but you might also meet veredulli, which is a green person Which is just another word for an Esperano speaker because for some reason us Esperanos have a real fascination with the green Hello, I think that's to do with the Irish or something like that. I remember reading an article somewhere But don't quote me on that you might also meet some ideano some ideano simply translates as someone with the same idea Which is that we both speak Esperano, so we must have similar ideals Yeah, not always, but yeah, that's another common word you will see now Obviously as you enter the event you're gonna see experienced speakers You're gonna meet new speakers and obviously the word for a beginner of Esperanto is common santo Okay, that's the standard word, but you might also see the word bonantabula, which means good day person And the reason they do that is because it's basically just implying and this is a little bit derogative That you don't know how to say anything really apart from good day My name is blah blah blah the most basic thing. So bonantabula, but you might also meet up key of the phara tassulo Which is exactly the same as bonantabula both from a little bit derogative And I avoid using those words because I don't want to make people feel bad because that's all they know how to say But you will see them every now and then now obviously as a beginner response to you some of the things They're gonna say are gonna be volapucca joy or volapucca joy and that basically just means it's Greek to me Or I don't understand. It's it has no meaning. It's senseless and jibber jabber and it's funny enough That's actually the ajo which means thing and volapucca which is another created language that became before Esperanto So Esperanto is actually used as a semi not an insult, but to say something that doesn't make sense We actually point to a previous created language how like how ironic is that? I suppose um so while you're at the event you're gonna walk around here me lots of different people one of the People you might meet is a geek or which is a geek as you know someone who's fascinated a particular subject and usually excels at it You might also meet otako, which is pretty much the same as a geek geek Oh, however, they're usually the type of people that lock themselves in the room and really focus on that They're like geek on a hardcore scale. You might also meet nerdo, which as you could imagine means nerd now Obviously geek or nerdo otako. They're all kind of they can kind of all like Merge a little bit in big U. It's just like English that's slang It's just how it is every now and then you'll meet a katsuo lot which basically translates as dickhead now It's not as insulting as the English one Or the English use of the word. It's more kind of like playful and you'll see it a lot katsuo all the time Don't get insulted by it. You may also meet Dando now Dando originally is like a really old word that came from English And it's been around since beginning of Esperanto and every now and then its usage goes up and it disappears And it comes up and down up and down originally meant a guy who wanted to make himself look up a class He would like speak with like a really upper-class type of way He'd wear like the whatever's in fashion at the time that type of person now I meant originally meant to a guy but as with most Esperanto words, it's now mutual So Dando committee of a guy or a girl and someone who just cares about physical and parents and how they present themselves You might actually know you won't you will never meet this person out in Esperanto Misentropo a misentropo Basically is someone who avoids at all costs society and humans in general if you ever see one of those people They're like they throw down their wallet and they're like I've had enough of society I'm gonna go buy a cabin in the woods and move there with my pet duck That's a misentropo and every now and then I feel like I want to be one of them But yeah, you know, I'm gonna pay for the bill so I can't do that That's the standard people you're gonna meet at event But you might also meet Kretan Lee or Kretan Translate as a Kretan or someone who has lowered an average IQ level now Obviously, this can be a bit derogative especially to people who are handicapped. So be careful how you use it You also meet idiota, which means idiot Again someone who's stupid My personal favorite you'll meet Numputo, which is someone who acts like a child or has childish jokes Or you know, it does silly little things kind of me imagine me Numputo. This is me, okay You will also meet every now and a boobo and a boobo is similar to Numputo But it's generally reserved for a child who's like kind of mischievous and stuff like that It can be applied to an adult as well Now obviously those are the normal people not not normal That's like a whole range of people you'll meet at an event But you'll also come against the hardcore Esperanto speakers and we have several words for them I voted the Papo, which means a green pope This type of person is the type of person who will stand up in front of three other Esperanto And give them a speech on why they should learn Esperanto when they all speak it already We call them theverted the Papo because they're basically preaching to the converted There's no point trying to tell these people to learn Esperanto when they already speak it The next person you will meet is a talpah. A talpah means mole But it has a secondary meaning of someone who Overzealously promotes Esperanto, especially say to a journalist or someone like that They'll say you have to learn Esperanto type of thing and generally there you only reserve this word For people who you're so overzealous that actually puts other people off of learning Esperanto So it's kind of counterproductive You'll also see Oldula now Oldula comes from Olda, which means old the same as Maluna Now Olda you think comes from the English old. Well, actually no it comes from Ido, I said Ido, which is in English but Ido Which is the offshoot of Esperanto which took it from I'm assuming English so it's come from English into Ido into Esperanto and Oldula, although it means an old person old person It's generally got like a kind of a secondary meaning which is kind of like a little bit eccentric and stuff like that Because if you just wanted to say an old person you'd say Malunula However, if you say Oldula you're adding that extra little bit of sense of being a little bit eccentric and stuff like that There's a reason you're picking that word. Obviously there's a few verbs that us Esperanto use and for some reason We haven't all of us had this fascination with reptiles now It all started out with Caracadilly, which is a verb and it means to crocodile But what it actually means is to speak your native language with someone else who also speaks your native language So I speak English with another English person in an Esperanto event when we should be speaking Esperanto because it's used kind of in a Not really derogative but it's used in the way You shouldn't do that because imagine if a journalist walks in and they want to do like an article in Esperanto And they see two people speaking English in an Esperanto event Obviously doesn't present the best like face for the language You'll also see Aligatori, which is basically to speak a foreign language Which is native language of someone else when you should be speaking Esperanto Most people just use Caracadilly, but you'll also see Aligatori So for instance say I speak Chinese and I speak Chinese with a Chinese speaker when I know they speak Esperanto For whatever reason, maybe I want to practice Chinese someone might say Ne Aligatoru The other one you'll see which is very rare But you will see it every now and then is Kaimani and that means to speak a language that no one understands Why would you do that? But people do it, okay? So let's say I'm at an Esperanto meeting and I decide randomly to speak Mary and no one else can speak it I'm just standing here in the middle of the room like a learner like a friend there's a lot someone who's crazy For an answer means crazy for an answer is someone who's crazy. So yeah, that's Kaimani And finally every now and then you might turn around go where the hell's John He's been here every single year for the last 10 years and someone will go he for whatever reason has Left the movement, which is Kabe Kabe It means to leave the movement and it comes from the name of a famous Esperanto way back in the day who was I believe a native speaker of Esperanto wrote all these awesome works and then one day just went disappeared so every now and then people walk Kabe and You'll also see Mal Kabe when someone leaves the movement and ten years later sides. I'm back. Sorry about that guys Yeah, I had to do some stuff. So yeah, you'll see that and then people make jokes about it Well, he didn't really come back in the first place, but that's it. That's it for Esperanto saying I could go on forever There's so much more. I didn't want to cover derogatory stuff in this lesson.
