    very informative! that's for posting these videos, they are really helping me. I was confused about the last two slides however. one appeared to show a delicious fish with a small red fruit, a tiny apple if you will, in its mouth. It had nothing to do with Esperanto but it inspired me to learn French for sure.

    Can we write bed as "kusxejo" too? We do lie in bed.

    • @AmericanEsperantist
      @AmericanEsperantist  7 років тому +5

      Kuŝejo would refer to a place of lying. According to Plena Ilustrita Vortaro, "kuŝejo" is an arrangement of soft objects on which one lies. And if you search "kuŝejo" on the Esperanto Wikipedia, it shows the page for "berth", which is a sleeping area on trains and ships. In short, you will probably be understood if you use "kuŝejo" instead of "lito", but "kuŝejo" has a slightly different and more general meaning. I hope this helps!

    Regarding adverbs and locations, is this right?...
    La mano iras ene la ganto :: The hand goes inside (of) the glove.
    Dankon.

    • @AmericanEsperantist
      @AmericanEsperantist  8 років тому

      Since there is a change of location (the hand is not already inside of the glove when it's going inside of the glove), you would use "enen". I would probably say "La mano iras enen de la ganto" or "La mano iras enen al la ganto". I'm not 100 percent sure on this translation, so you might want to make a post about it in the group "lingva konsultejo" on facebook.

    • @AmericanEsperantist
      @AmericanEsperantist  8 років тому

      I just checked and it would be "La mano iras enen de la ganto." But the most common use would be "La mano iras en la ganton."

  • @dew3968
    @dew3968 3 роки тому +1

    I sincerely think some irregularities in Esperanto could actually make it easier. For example: In "La lernejo estas trans la strato" is almost a tongue twister. We could have "esta", without an S at the end, or choose to normalize dropping it (esta' ?) so that it fits more easily with words full of Ss (although Esperanto's plural doesn't involve Ss, it still has lots of words with it, as noticeable in the example given above...
    What do you guys think??

    • @engineergaming3820
      @engineergaming3820 3 роки тому +3

      I don't see why that phrase would be a tongue twister for someone used to Esperanto, but if you still have problems with it, don't worry, you probably just don't have enough practice to be able to speak naturally (and if your native language does not sound like Esperanto, it will be hard)
      And if we change the language like that we will be missing the WHOLE point of Esperanto, a language that is easy, reliable and always regular.

      Well thanks! Oh and about your first comment, I may have avoided using "via" as a translation for "per" since it could potentially cause confusion with the Esperanto word "via" (yours). But who knows what I was thinking. Like you said, it's an old video. ;)

    Why is airport flughaveno, and not flugejo, a place of flight?

    • @AmericanEsperantist
      @AmericanEsperantist  7 років тому +1

      Flughaveno is a combination of "flugi" (to fly) and "haveno" (harbor). So flughaveno is a harbor for flying, which is more specific than just a "place" for flying.

      Yes. I might say "Mi grimpas en la liton" or "Mi grimpas en mian liton". But that's just my personal taste. Otherwise it sounds like "I'm climbing into a bed."

    • @NoahNobody
