Saluton from Radaro!
A warm welcome to newcomers and regulars alike to another week of excellent material gathered from all corners of the land of Esperantujo! Don’t be nervous like Peele in the meme below, for you have new videos, a pronunciation guide, redone Amikumu, and NASK classes waiting for you. Before you know it, Esperanto will be a total breeze!
Website of the Week
Forvo.com
One of the most attractive features of Esperanto is its straightforward pronunciation but if you’re just getting started there’s a good chance you’re still getting accustomed to it. To help you along, here’s a website called Forvo. You can search thousands of words in Esperanto (and other languages) and it will give you a recorded sample of someone pronouncing it so you can develop your own charming Esperanto accent!
