#101 mohammed

Hello everyone. I am planning to start a community of esperantists. After the Esperanto lando server on teamtalk was taken down, I've started planning to create a new community of mainly blind esperantists. Not only for the purpose of recreating it, but also for getting rid of the misconception that most, if not all blind esperantists are russian or slavic. Anyone who is interested to become part of the community can contact me whenever possible. Saluton al ĉiuj. Mi planas komenci komunumon de esperantistoj. Post kiam la Esperanta lando-servilo ĉe teamtalk estis malkonstruita, mi ekplanis krei novan komunumon de ĉefe blindaj esperantistoj. Ne nur por rekrei ĝin, sed ankaŭ por forigi la miskomprenon, ke la plej multaj, se ne ĉiuj blindaj esperantistoj estas rusaj aŭ slavaj. Ĉiu, kiu interesiĝas fariĝi parto de la komunumo, povas kontakti min kiam ajn eblas.

ah. That's cool. Because I was actually interested in opening up a norwegian elten thing. Well I know me living here, then 2 norwegians and 1 not living there but having it as her mother tung. Though if I'd open up that comunity it'd be full of gramatical mistakes probably, because I'm still learning. Curious how many people we have who can speak it anyway.

Just saying, most of those lots of languages are conlangs anyway, or dead languages which people barely speak.

Calling a language with 2000 native speakers a dead language. Not to mention that it's spoken by 2000000 people and taught in different universities cross the globe.

Marc, A few hundreds, they all seem to be of slavic origin though, in the blind community at lest. And they disappeared after esperanto lando got takendown

#115 DianaCician

Maybe for the fact that they have nowhere totalk now or they went on their own private ones?

Diana's right I guess.

Lol, a linguist shouldn't misunderstand so a simply written english message. What I said is out of those twenty or so languages you know, most are either dead or can't be called as an official language. I'm afraid with my 4 languages I can communicate with more people then I'd have been able to with klingon, elvish, or anything else.

#118 mohammed

Actually not. Only 6 of these 27 languages I know are constructed, and 2 are dead. Your statement is false
