become a fluent esperantist

what was I thinking of? Why learn Esperanto so I can communicate with people the other side of the earth when I could be learning le patois cauchois and communicating with my next door neighbour about the best way to trim the grass that grows in the concrete?

I walked past someone trimming the grass that grows in the cracks between their concrete housewall and the concrete pavement.

That is so wrong on so many levels. Or maybe growing up with concrete cows has influenced my judgement.

Mi esperas ke mia oficejo luos una klerulo kui parolas esperanto. Mi scios lundo. Estus bona por la golo!

an esperanto speaker in the pub after the art exhibition (did you hear that everybody? shall i say it again? ‘art’ exhibition. haha. ‘vernissage’ ‘exhibition’ ‘art exhibits, you know darlings’). That was fun, I don’t get to use those words very often, especially not on a weekday.

Eseperanto progress! Of course I was too drunk to actually talk it, and I have no idea how we got on to the subject but it’s a start…

Funny, the header is green – Green is the colour of esperanto!
I really don’t understand why governments imprison people for it, my mum acts like it’s a sort of sect, some of the brainiest people alive are esperantists, and all the people I like wouldn’t mind speaking it. It’s got 16 rules (like vedic math, is this some kind of golden mean I’ve been missing out on?), it’s dead easy to learn (and dead easy to forget, unfortunately). But why all the fuss when you say you’re going to learn it? Can someone explain please?
