The flaw of the language

Love this topic in lernu.net -- The imprecision of English Should we consider the flaw of the language? Love this comment: You do not have to be precise. But translators do! Especially when they are translating very important documents - and they often encounter such ambiguities in English texts, and English is supposed to be used internationally in politics, economy and so on. Think of it. Yes, life of a translator is not easy. http://en.lernu.net/komunikado/forumo/temo.php?t=7836 Take a good laugh http://www.gray-area.org/Research/Ambig/

Pensu pri Nova Jaro

It is time again to say this, but this year it is something new for me: Feliĉan kristnaskon kaj Novjaron ! Hope is better for everyone in the coming year.

Tibbits: Flow with the river

Interesting to know that the patnership between Panama and China has gone stronger by reading BBC news:

Tibbits:Life tells the story

If Dr Zamenhof was a rich man, we have no Esperanto now. “If I had not been a Jew from the ghetto,” Zamenhof wrote in a letter in 1905, “the idea of uniting humanity either would never have entered my head or it would never have gripped me so tenaciously throughout my entire life.” This is what experince tells us what is the cause of change. I certainly agreed on this. Speakers of Esperanto hope that a common language will reduce conflict among neighbors. By conversing in what they describe as “the most widely-spoken constructed international auxiliary language in the world,” they trust the world will be better off. http://blogs.forward.com/the-arty-semite/134095/   But I think otherwise. Will talk about it when my mind is more composed. Esperanto is certainly not only solving confilicts but has more on economy as well as equality.

A word for Andy Rooney

I wonder if he knows that Malaysia will soon be another country to form the Esperanto Association, what would he say about Esperanto.

Esperanto-Kongreso ASEAN

I read the post of KS Seminario is over in Vietnam. Some of the participants were very happy. Well done Vietnam Esperantists. We are waiting for the bigger event in 2012.
