My first blog in Esperanto

How is it? Terrible? Or is it okay?

I noticed one mistake. I mispronounced teknologio and psikologio. I think that I have a lot of work before I perfect the language but this is a great way to practice. I think I will try to do the subtitles differently in the future so that they are more clear.

Anyway, do you guys like it?

Great! I'm having some trouble following most speech in podcasts and stuff, so things like this are awesome to practice a bit of listening. Your pronunciation was great as far as I could tell.

I do have a question about this:
Esperanto estas tre facila komparita al aliaj lingvoj
I'm not sure "komparita" works here, since it's an adjective and you need a verb. I dunno though. More awkwardly:
"Esperanto estas tre facila kiam oni komparas ĝin al aliaj lingvoj"
Mi tre ŝatas Steve Jobs ĉar lia dediĉo. Mi volas havi lian dediĉon
I think this should be "sia dediĉo" and maybe also "sian dediĉon".

Keep up the awesome work!
plu verkas mojose!

Many podcast players can adjust the playback speed. Maybe try our podcast kern.punkto at a speed of 0.8. I would be curious to know how this works out for a beginner.

I will listen to it after work, when I get home.

It's: Esperanto estas tre facila lingvo kompare kun aliaj lingvoj.

I prefer "dediĉado" because it's a persistent dedication over al long period of time. Not only "I wrote a song this morning on the bus, let me dedicate it to you."

It should be: Daŭrigu la mojosan laboron.

Thank you very much for your corrections and advice. I think I will take Benny Lewis' advice and not be a afraid of making mistakes. I will just try my best not to make the same mistake a second time.

It is nice to get some feedback. Making a Youtube video is a good way to practice if you are shy and an introvert like me.

Some mistakes to avoid in addition to the ones already mentioned here: accusative (see thread in vidpunktoj)

As someone already told you, watch the "a" in the last sylable. It's a bit like the vowel sound in english "mass", "class", "lough". The way you pronounce it, it might get mixed up with "e" or even "i".

For example in the sencence "... vi vidas mian nivelon de flueco", I hear "... vi vidis ..." and in "Esperanto estas facila komparita ..." I hear "... facile komparite ...".

Definitely "lia(n)", as Steve Jobs is not the subject of either sentence (so alkanadi already had it right in that respect). And "pro" instead of "ĉar".

Makes sense! ^_^ Thanks!

I'm having my first live Esperanto meeting, and conversation, next week. ridego.gif I really need to fix some these basics, I think!

Hadn't thought of that, but I'll try to follow along as best I can as is for now, and let you know!

Oh I missed this one:

Mi faris tiun blogon, ĉar mi ...

many of the "e" and "a" are mispronounced. always remember that "e" is pronounced like the "e" in "bet" and "a" is like the one in "spa"! ridulo.gif
some examples are: kanadano, praktiki, lernejo, de, esperanto(take note of the 2nd "e" ), ankaŭ, fine, etc
don't worry too much about it though, almost everybody makes this mistake at the start. just be careful.

other than some of the pronunciation, you're doing great! your sentences look great and you're using a good range of vocabs.
