I have the text of the Londona Biblio (the Esperanto version of the Bible) on my Bible Program on my android phone. I am thinking of using it to help me learn Esperanto so that I can study on the go. My question is, is this text archaic? I know its almost a hundred years old, which is why I am asking.

Thanks for your input!

I've not read a huge amount, but I didn't notice anything especially odd. The usage is a bit different from slang colloquial Esperanto, I guess, but a good formal register. I noticed that in Esperanto, a translator can afford to be a bit more literal than in English without sounding odd.

If you're interested in an audio bible, there's quite a bit which has been by Ken Caviness and other volunteers. (I've read a few chapters and hope to do more this next academic year.)

I couldn't imagine anyone using the Bible to learn any other language. Straightforward texts are better so meaning is clear.

It did a lot - vocabulary grew from 1000 roots to almost 15000, some uses have been abandoned now, and so on. Consult Don Harlow for more details.

I wasn't going to use a theologically rich passage such as one of Paul's epistles, for example. I was thinking more of Mark, which is mainly narrative and not much theologically rich teachings (none, in fact, that I can think of). Mark is, to my thinking, a very straight forward book. My main reason for wanting to use the Londona Biblio is convenience. I have it on my phone, along with a translator, so I practice Esperanto on the go.

Why not? If it's a text you know well in your own language, looking at how it's done in Esperanto can only be helpful.

I can think of two reasons:

It's very likely written in a way completely different to almost every ordinary sentence one is likely to write (or say) when using any language for normal discourse.

I like discouraging people from reading the Bible whenever I can. ridulo.gif

I can't say that I've noticed that.
