I Missed Esperanto Day
Monday, December 18th, 2006I was holding off until I knew enough Esperanto to actual write a full post in the language, but it seems that didn’t work out. It’s an easy language to learn, but still can take a while to get the vocabulary all together. See Zuck’s blog for a real Esperanto day post.
Anyways, Esperanto Day is celebrated on December 15th, the birthday of the language’s creator Zamenhof. It was created to be used as a universal secondary language. While it still isn’t there yet more than a century after being created, there is still some home for it, especially considering the events of the past century such as the creation of the United Nations and the European Union.
I guess we will see where it goes from here. It is a fun and easy to learn language. If you like languages, I’d recommend at least looking at it.
So happy belated Esperanto Day, Esperanto. And happy birthday Mr. Zamenhof, even though you’re dead.
