Mi amas Esperanton! Mi estus tre malfeliĉa se estus ne plu esperantistoj en Ĉinio
That was very interesting. However, I would have liked to have heard the students' reasons for selecting Esperanto as a major. Some of them seemed regretful at the conference.
pretty sure most of them were forced to study this major because of the transfer调剂 program exists in the college application process
@@user-tm1fn7oz9x Oh, that's interesting. That would explain the dissatisfaction I thought I detected from some of the students in the conference scene. But how does it work, how could they be forced into studying a major?
Sorry, I've no strong reason for asking this, just curious, and of course you have no obligation to enlighten me.
@@kingbolo4579 It's an optional thing when applying for colleges or universities that priors to getting you into your desired college instead of choosing majors. If you check "willing to accept major adjustment", and your score is lower than your desired major requires but enough for some other majors in that college, you will be "adjusted" to those less popular, hence requires lower score, majors.
Interesting - as an Esperanto speaker myself in the West it is pretty much impossible to do a university course in Esperanto, and the idea it is harder than other course is kind of funny (it is pretty much the easiest most regular language in the world to learn). We also have a different approach to university study - in that with certain exceptions (medicine , engineering etc) it is not the subject matter itself that is important but the ability to apply oneself, to learn effectively, to research and to marshal thoughts and arguments, to think critically and examine evidence, to produce high quality reports and to work in groups to a common goal that is important. Ancient or art history, Classics, philosophy are all as useless in the modern work place as Esperanto but that’s not the point. Can’t see anyone who didn’t actively choose to study it stick with it though.
The boy did mention that he chose Esperanto because he thought it would be easy and less competitive than other majors. The girl mentioned that she was told there would be job opportunities after graduation
Dankon por viaj laboroj Sun Mingxiao
Mi estas komencando esperantisto, kaj mi amis la dokumentarion. Dankon!
Mi lernis Esperanton per Duolingo en 2016, sed mi nun povas paroli gxin iomete. (So the following comments are in English)
The biggest problem is that there are few chances to use Esperanto. The large-scale learning of Esperanto in China's 1980s was just to find an easier way to communicate with the West. However, westerners didn't use this language at all. After that, Esperanto soon became useless in China, and only people interested in different languages would know and learn it.
Mi esperas ke la situacio pliboniĝos kaj ankaŭ malfeliĉas pri la manko da studentoj. Esperanto estas vere bela kaj bona lingvo sed ne sufiĉe disvastigita.
I like Esperanto, but you just can't make a living from teaching Esperanto. Here in Costa Rica there's a small group of people who can speak it, but it's difficult to get together with them and they don't seem willing to help. I study it for hobbie, but studying it as a major seems to me a waste of time.
Mi konsentas
Here to my friend, but we are around! At least we have that.
Mi amis tiun dokumentarion. Mi ŝatus kontakti kun sro Sun Mingxiao aŭ iu de universitato Zaozhuang. I loved the documentary and I would like to contact Mr Sun Mingxiao or someone of Zaozhuang university.
Gratulon!! kaj salutojn el la mezlernejo Almenara de Vélez-Málaga, la unua lernocentro kie oni povas studi oficiale Esperanton.
mi ne sciis ke ekzistas universitatoj fakaj je esperanto
saluton el Peruo
Tre bone....❤
Laŭ mi estas iom surprize aŭdi ke la Internacia Lingvo malkreskas en Ĉinio: ĉi tio ne estas la impreso kiun mi havas de agado interreta. Eble ĝi malkreskas en la universitatoj kaj ŝtata sponsorado nur?
en kiu retejo oni povas ekzerci esperanton kun cxinianoj?
how can i study there
ĝi estas tre malfeliĉa ke esperanton estas mortante en ĉino :((
Por kio neniu markis "Bone" sub filmeto? 🤔
Tre interesa video. Mi elektis esperanton volonte kaj lernis ghin sendepende de lerneja programo. En la video, homoj spertas Esperanton kiel maljunan kaj rigidan lingvon kion ili estas devigata lerni. Mi komprenas ke tiel estas malfacile malkovri la ghojon de Esperanto. Sed mi konas ankau mian flankon kie Esperanto estis kaj estas shlosilo al la mondo kaj ties buntaj homoj kun multege da unuecaj memoroj :D.
Certe. Vi pravas Ĝuste.
Unu eta korekto, Zamenhof ne estis polo, sed rusa judo. Lia denaska lingvo estis la rusa kaj la jida, la pola estis lia 5-a lingvo
The reason why is there are already "global" languages. Initially with French, but now with English. Why study a constructed language that brings less opportunity over naturally-developed languages that were already spread naturally around the world.
Kio estas la kanto je la komenco de la filmeto?
Mi ankau volas scii tion!
Mi pensas ke ĝi estas "auld lang sine"
@@johntschernach Ghuste! "La prakonatojn chu mi lasu velki el memor'? Chu ni ne pensu kare pri la Iamo Longe For?"
uau!
Ho! Tio estas tro bone ✨✨ mi volas chinan edzinon ✨✨
Correction: Zamenhof was a Russian Jew and specifically asked people to not call him Polish because he didn't want people thinking that he was pretending to be something that he wasn't.
Morcego solitário.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa wa wa wa wa wa wa wa wa waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Esperanto Ludoviko crying
"...wa wa wa wa wa waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Esperanto Ludoviko crying.."
Only you are crying. Tamen ne Zamenhof kaj aliaj - spertaj en la lingvo. 😡
Esperanto shouldn't be a niche major, but a wide minor
tre bedauxre. mi konsentas kun la sinteno de 1:45 (io povas valori sen kapti monon).
Great documentation very interesting! Jen tre interesa dokumentaĵo!
