As my wife would probably tell you, I am a big fan of the
language Esperanto. As my personal campaign to encourage the use of the
language, I hereby offer you the following:
Free registration codes for every new game we offer later--forever I offer this in exchange for you simply trying to learn the language.
Esperanto is a fabricated language, designed and introduced about 100 years ago. It is not intended to replace your language, but rather to serve as a universal second language: something for people to use to communicate when they don't have a native language in common. Esperanto is remarkably easy to learn, because it was designed to be. It's a real language in every aspect--anything you can say, you can say in Esperanto. It's also an attractive language: when spoken it sounds quite elegant, and because of its structure it's well suited to poetry and music. A great place to learn about the language is right here.
To fulfill your half of the bargain, just take the short email-based Free Esperanto Course. The course consists of 10 easy lessons which introduce Esperanto grammar and basic vocabulary. (I did the lessons in about half an hour each, at a pace of one lesson per day--they're really not difficult at all.) When you sign up for the course, you'll be assigned a tutor who will email you the lessons. Each day, read through another lesson: after you've studied it, fill out its excercises and email your answers to your tutor. He'll respond and answer any questions, and you can move on to the next lesson. To sign up for the Free Esperanto Course, just click here. When you've finished the course, you'll be able to read most Esperanto literature--and, much harder, even write in it (both, of course, with the help of a dictionary--as with any language, there's lots of vocabulary to learn). When you've successfully completed the course, just have your tutor email me, and I'll send you your registration codes. It's that easy. Dankon, kaj bonŝancu! | ||||||
