Lots of people speak Esperanto.
It's all relative. Compared to, say, Spanish?
I'm one of them. Multaj homoj parolas Esperanton. Mi estas unu el
ili.
Very cool. Translation?
Come on, Dave. Pattern match.
Multaj - multiple(many)
homoj - homo(man)
(and at this point you figure a j suffix might mean plural)
parolas - like French parlez (talk)
Esparanton - not sure about the n suffix
Mi - My, Me
estas - like latin est, spanish es: to be
unu - latin unu, game/spanish uno, one
el - spanish
ili - wouldn't have guessed in isolation, but clearly "them"
- Larry [who has never spoken a word of Esperanto in his life]
Yeah ok, I see it, I was being lazy. ;) It really is a simple
language!
