Inhaltsangabe

Learn the endings first, and the rest follows.

In Esperanto, the last letter of a word tells you what it is: -o is a thing, -a a quality, -e a manner, -n the object, -is the past. This book starts there, and builds everything else on top.

Eight tiers, one clear path to B1. Each tier gives you one piece of grammar, about ten days of words, texts to read and exercises to do, in a fixed order: context, grammar, the traps, the words, reading, practice.

Inside this book:

  • The complete alphabet: 28 letters, 28 pictures
  • An easy, English-style pronunciation for every word, with no phonetic symbols
  • 1,512 words, including 44 affixes that let you build thousands more
  • All of Zamenhof's sixteen rules, plus what they leave unsaid
  • 24 texts built only from words you already know, then authentic texts
  • 143 exercises, with every answer at the back
  • A full glossary sorted by category, and the table of correlatives

Written for English speakers. Every trap is explained from English: why "him" and "her" are the key to the -n ending, why your vowels must never fade to "uh", why Esperanto has only one past tense where English has several.

Honest about its limits. No audio, and no certificate: one page of the book tells you exactly what it does, and what it doesn't. Spoken B1 is earned by talking with people, and the appendix tells you where to find them.

Half an hour a day, and in a few months you'll be writing to someone on the other side of the world, in a language that belongs to no one.
