Learn to count in #Esperanto in tri minutes
(Lernu konti en Esperanto en tri minutoj)
The building blocks:
0 -- nul [as in /dev/null]
1 -- unu [as in unu*ity ;-)]
2 -- **du* [as in du*ality]
3 -- **tri* [as in tri*angle (but the "i" is pronounced as in mach*i*ne)]
4 -- **kvar* [as in quar*tet]
5 -- **kvin* [as in quin*tet]
6 -- **ses* [as in ???, but still not difficutl to remeber it]
7 -- sep [as in sep*tember (the 7th month in the Roman calendar)]
8 -- **ok* [as in oc*tober or *oc*tagon]
9 -- **naŭ* [as in naŭ*veber ;-)]
10 -- **dek* [as in dec*ade]
100 -- **cent* [as in cent*ury]
1000 -- **mil* [as in *mil*lennium]
Using these building blocks, you count the simplest and most logical way:
11 -- dek unu, 12 -- dek du, 13 -- dek tri, 14 dek kvar--, etc.
20 -- dudek, 21 -- dudek unu, 22 -- dudek du, 23 dudek tri, etc.
30 -- tridek, 31 -- tridek unu, 32 -- tridek du, 33 -- tridek tri, etc.
40 -- kvardek, 50 -- kvindek, 60 -- sesdek, 70 -- sepdek, 80 -- okdek, etc.
123 -- cent dudek tri, 345 -- tricent kvardek kvin, 678 -- sescent sepdek ok, etc.
1010 -- mil dek, 2020 -- du mil dudek, 34567 -- tridek kvar mil kvincent sesdek sep, etc.
Forming ordinals is also really simple (just add an "a"):
1st -- unua, 2nd -- dua, 3rd -- tria, 4th -- kvara, 5th -- kvina, 6th -- sesa, 7th -- sep, 8th -- oka, 9th -- naŭa, 10th -- deka, 11th -- dek unua, etc.
That's all. It was nice and easy, right?
Of course, not just counting is nice, regular and easy in Esperanto. One of the main goals of Zamenhof was to create a language that one can be learned quickly and easily. This goal is already achieved since it way easier to learn it that any natural language.
"145 hours of Esperanto is enough, for a French speaker, to reach a level about equivalent to 1500 hours in English or 2000 in German; showing Esperanto is learned 10 to 13 times faster than other languages" see this Wikipedia page
Even though roughly 1 in 7 people speaks English and also 1 in 7 people speaks Mandarin, most (pairs of) people still don't have a
common language.
If two people don't have a common language, it is more fair, easy and cost efficient to both of them learn Esperanto than to one of them learn the language of the other. (It can be at least 5--6 times cheaper/easier to learn Esperanto for the two of them, than for one of them to learn the other's language as it is 10--13 times faster to learn Esperanto than other languages, see above.)
So it would be perfectly reasonable to teach Esperanto worldwide.
Regardless of this, Esperanto is not an international auxiliary language of the world yet, but that is not the failure of Esperanto. That is the failure of (hu)mankind. We are mostly a bunch of idiots, who are still fight wars, overvalue money against life, hate each other for foolish reasons, etc. So it is not surprising that even the most obvious things takes centuries for us to embrace.
So why bother learning Esperanto?
The most obvious reasons are:
- it is fun to learn it
- it helps learning other languages, see the propaedeutic value of Esperanto
- you gain access to the international Esperanto culture
For example, Esperanto music can be listened at various podcasts such as Muzaiko. There are several good Esperanto music and musicians, one of my favourite is @Jonny M who happens to be also a diasporean.
In this post, you can read my reasons of learning Esperanto.
What is/was your reason to learn Esperanto or why don't you plan to learn it?
How to learn it?
There are lots of resources online. Some notable examples are:
https://lernu.net
https://learn.esperanto.com/en/
Diasporean @Notxor also has some blog posts teaching Esperanto in Spanish.
This post is released as #cc0 thanks to @Miloslav Číž's #cc0challenge convincing me the benefits of that license.
Please, use/remix it as you wish.
For some strange mental association this reminds me of a genius who once sent me a barely readable PDF. It happened that the genius had a Word document, but he couldn't print it because the printer was broken, so he faxed it to himself, then scanned the document and attached it to an email!

What is DNA Storage? | "The Wizard of Oz" Stored In DNA
In a new paper published this week in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Finkelstein and company detail their new error correction method, which they tested out on a classic novel. They were able to store the entirety of The Wizard of Oz, translated into Esperanto, with more accuracy than prior DNA storage methods ever could have. We're on the yellow brick road toward the future of data storage.

| Ĉi tiu estas mia unua respondo al #cc0challenge de @Miloslav Číž, Mi komplete rekreis kaj plibonigis ĉi tiu memeo el reddit uzante #inkscape kaj #CC0 bildoj el https://pixabay.com. La memeo en reddit enhavas kopirajta simbolo ke estas ridinda kaj ankaŭ doloras rigardi ĝin. Tiu estas la ĉefa kialo por mi rekreis ĝin anstataŭ simple afiŝi ĝin ĉi tie. | This is my fist answer to #cc0challenge of @Miloslav Číž. I have completely recreated and improved this meme from reddit using #inkscape and #CC0 images from https://pixabay.com. The meme on reddit contains a copyright symbol which is not just ridiculous but also hurts too look at. That is the main reason why I recreated the meme instead of simply posting it here. |

Malapero de insektoj en Svislando (kaj Eŭropo)
La malkresko kaj endanĝerigo de insektoj estas subjekto de larĝa scienca literaturo kaj iliaj ĉefaj kaŭzoj estas konataj. Tiel skribas la svisa Biodiverseco Forumo de la Svisa Akademio de Sciencoj en informfolio publikigita ĵaŭde. Esploristoj rekomendas trakti urĝe la kaŭzoj de insektojmalprosperoj.

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m a former computer programmer trying to study for Cisco's #ccent so I can get back into the field, I feel like I'm dying without it.
A budding #esperantisto studying #esperanto. Actually I'm doing this to get over failing several years of French in High School back in the 70s!
I used to #sketch, #draw and part of me would like to get into #cartooning. I'm lousy at the #guitar and #harmonica.
Kids grown now. I miss living in Baton Rouge, LA. Why am I finding that writing this is so frickin' #depressive?
