The Esperantish Fane
The Esperantish tung/tongue or leid (Esperantish and wonted English: Esperanto or Esperanton for the tholfall befalling; Esperanton is not brooked in any English byleid but is is brooked in Esperantish), also hight The Worldly or Worldish Tung (la lingvo internacia/la internacia lingvo, mark that the word following can be changed and -n is added to word endings in the tholfall befalling), or sometimes quethed as the 'barest tung', is a man-made tongue which was crafted in the year 1877 by a Polish Eye-Learer yclept Ludwik Lejzer Zamenhof ('tis of wont to oft wend this as Lr. L. L. Zamenhof or 'Doktoro Esperanto' which booksvavishly means "the hoping one' or 'Learer hopeful'). So far, Esperantish is the most widely spoken crafted tung in the Midden-eard with about two-micklered speakers (with manifold mettle and downess reachings), and at least one to two-thousand erd-folkish speakers. Although it holds this work-mark, it has not done its elden work-mark of foroning the theodes to speak in a worldly tung, nor has it fordone the den-marks of tungs.
Lore
Zamenhof crafted this leid for the inthing that he wished for it to be a 'worldly' tongue where the folkthedes of the world could speak to each other without riddle (however, it did not happen as he thought it would). Furthermore, one must look to Zamenhof's background to truly understand why this tongue was ashapened. In the burg where Zamenhof grew up (Białystok), there was a big otherness with folkthedes and tungs. He believed that the men of his burg were not split apart by den-marks, but by what he saw as a 'den-mark of tungs'. Sithence, he crafted his tung as barish for folks to learn and as a fran to break down or fordo the splitters of tungs.
Zamenhof wrote and made his first book known in 1877; sithence, he named this book 'Unua Libro' (which means 'First Book') and said book had 920 stem-words, all of which can be used to craft thousands of words. He quethed that these words could be crafted along the lines of his 'Fundamenta Gramatiko' (or switched word following), which loosely means 'Holding Wordcraft'. The holding wordcraft'of Esperantish has at least sixteen bare stavecraftish fromths. However, he soon said that his crafted tung was open for all who wished to bework it, and did not say that he took full ownership of the tung (much like Anglish).
Bulk
Esperantish has mostly Latinish inflood and words from it as well; however, hit has also been seen to have stems of some Theedish tungs, and even Slavish tungs as well. It should be marked down that the wordcraftish holding of this tongue is Slavish, notwithstanding the truth that her wordcraft is almost wholly of Latinish stemming iwis.
Runeset and Spelling
There are twenty-eight runes which are brooked in the Esperantish Leid, with each rune brooked for a bestevened reard. Unlike English, all runes in Esperantish are said as they are spelt and can not be swapped around for another brooking. Here are the list of runes in this tung:
A a: a as in father
B b: b as in boat
C c: ts as in cats (even at the beginning of a word)
Ĉ ĉ: ch as in cherry
D d: d as in dog
E e: e as in get
F f: f as in fly
G g: g as in got
Ĝ ĝ: j as in jimmy
H h: h as in hat
Ĥ ĥ: ch as in Scottish loch (this reard is not in wonted brooking in nowen Esperantish).
I i: e as in eat
J j: y as in young
Ĵ ĵ: z as in azure
K k: k as in kin
L l: l as in lot
M m: m as in make
N n: n as in nine
O o: o as in oak
P p: p as in pear
R r: trilled r (rearing is manifold by speakers)
S s: s as in seen
Ŝ ŝ: sh as in shot
T t: t as in took
U u: oo as in too
Ŭ ŭ: w as in with
V v: v as in vond
Z z: z as in zen
The name for each rune hangs off of the ranking of said rune. If the rune is a vocal, the name for the rune would just be the vocal itself; be it a streave, however, then the name of said rune would be the streave and the reard ⟨o⟩ following said rune, such as Bo or Ĉo.
Aside from having 28 runes, Esperantish also has a few twithedins which it uses as well. The twithedins are as follows:
oj: oy as in boy
aj: i as in mine
ej: a as in pain
uj: ui as in ruinous
*mark: twithedins can also be made by adding the rune ŭ to a vocal.
aŭ: ow/ou's nowen reard, as in thou or cow.
eŭ: this is akin to Elmer Fudd's reard of the Chancery English word 'very', as in 'vewy, vewy quiet'.
Byspel ⁊ Overset
A byspel of written Esperantish (borrowed from Omniglot: Leaf 1 of the Worldly Forthsaying of Mankind's Rights): 'Ĉiuj homoj estas denaske liberaj kaj egalaj laŭ digno kaj rajtoj. Ili posedas racion kaj konsciencon, kaj devus konduti unu la alian en spirito de frateco.'
Bookstavish onset (Mark: this onset has chancery words; to mark this, all chancery words are Italicised): Every humans be/are/is natively free and even by way of dignity and rights. They possess reason and conscience, and should to behave one the other in spirit of fraternity.
Anglish Onset: All men are born free and even by way of worth and angetfulness. They have witcraftness and inwardness, and ought to behave towards each other in a brotherly mind.
