More about Esperanto

[papoanaya]

I have been learning Esperanto for quite some time, but it was not until last year in which I took time to be fairly fluent. Some people may see it as fool's errand and I respect your opinion. However, even though many do not believe it as a practical global second language, it will still help you to improve your mental health and delay the effects of Alzheimer if you are monolingual. It is a good way to learn a second language on the cheap while giving you all the benefits of knowing two languages.

Esperanto on Onehourtranslation

One aspect of the human experience that you get a clear sense of when you work in language translation is the fact that history moves quite slowly. When you read a history book, it’s easy to forget that decades and even centuries are being compressed on the page, making it seem as if historic events should have been perfectly obvious to all those involved. How could people living in Italy in the 4th Century not be aware that the Roman Empire was about to collapse? Because ‛collapse’ is a poor choice of words for a process that took centuries to complete, and often brought very little immediate change to those people.
