Revision as of 13:39, 9 January 2014

The most widely spoken constructed language, designed by Zamenhof in the late 19th century as an international auxiliary language, or auxlang. See esperanto.net. Also read "Esperanto, the Agressor Language!"

Formerly (in the 'Tweeners era) a substantial number of Lojbanists were familiar with Esperanto. This no longer appears to be the case.

Among them are nitcion, xorxes, maiky'elsym, cein, stivyn.

-The gismu [[jbocre: spero|spero]] was suggested for Esperanto, but once rejected.
-''lei la esperanton prenu.''
-'''''shouldn't this be "lei me la esperanton. prenu"?''''' ''If you want a tanru, yes.  But this isn't necessarily a tanru.  '''lei la esperanton. prenu''' expands to '''lei prenu pe la esperanton''' much as '''le mi cukta''' expands to '''le cukta pe mi'''.''
