I found this text on the internet. is it right? Im new to Esperanto so Im not sure Esperanto is a constructed international language that was invented in 1887. It is the most widely spoken constructed language in the world. Esperanto has 28 Letters in its alphabet and 10 rules with no Exceptions. It takes 2 mounths to speak fluent Esparnto, and their are around 2 million speakers all over the world. The 28-letter alphabet is: a b c ĉ d e f g ĝ h ĥ i j ĵ k l m n o p r s ŝ t u ŭ v z And the 10 rules are: 1) All nouns in Esperanto end with O. (Nouns are names of thıngs.) 2) To make a word plural, add a J 3) In Esperanto, we show the direct object of a sentence by adding an N. This lets us change the order of the parts of the sentence without changing the meaning. (A direct object is that which is directly acted upon by the verb) 4) All adjectives in Esperanto end with A. (Adjectives are used to describe nouns.) 5) Adding MAL to the beginning of a word gives it the opposite meaning. MAL is an example of a prefix. Prefixes go in front of words to make new words. In Esperanto there are 10 different prefixes. 6) There are also many ways to make new words using special suffixes. For example, ET makes something smaller. ET is an example of a suffix. Suffixes go on the end of words to make new words. In Esperanto there are 31 different suffixes. 7) Verbs, of course, are very important. But youll find theyre also very simple in Esperanto. (Verbs are action words.). Infinitives end in I. In the present tense, verbs always end in AS, in the past in IS, and in the future in OS. There are no irregular verbs! There are two more verb forms, US for the conditional form and U for the command form. In Grammar youll find more information about them. 8) The E ending is used to create adverbs. (Adverbs are words that descrıbe verbs.) 9) Every word is read as it is written and the Accent is always on the penultimate syllable. 10) The numbers above 10 are written and read exactly as they are set down in figures.
