Though I'm not a fan of the language (at all) I should mention that I do use it from time to time and some of the news articles I post here I first find on their sites. They also started a tv station today. I can't stand how it sounds though. Too many -oy, -oyn sounds. "I bought many CDs and few beautiful blue flowers" is Mi acxetis plenajn kompaktojn diskojn kaj malplenajn belajn bluajn florojn, which is just a mess. The j is pronounced like a y, so it sounds like 'plenain compactoin discoin kai malplenain belain bluain floroin'.  |
