I did notice that Hungarian usually spells it "Eszperantó", which is phonetically reasonable in Hungarian.
Any other (Latin-alphabet) languages that don't spell it "Esperanto"?

This makes no sense to me. I know enough Irish to know that there's no reason for female speakers to call any language by a different name than male speakers. Weird.
I may post a reference to that to an Irish-language discussion board and ask if this is a joke.

Bruso:Since posting this, I found the Irish-language Wikipedia article on Esperanto which says that female Irish-speakers call Esperanto "Sprantais".If you figure it out, please come back and share with the Gaelic-impaired. You've got me curious.

Breto:False alarm. I saw Baineann as a form of the Irish for "woman". So did google translate. But it's a verb combining with úsáid to mean "makes use of". Some speakers make use of Sprantais to name the language.Bruso:Since posting this, I found the Irish-language Wikipedia article on Esperanto which says that female Irish-speakers call Esperanto "Sprantais".If you figure it out, please come back and share with the Gaelic-impaired.

Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran called on Muslims to learn Esperanto... An Esperanto translation of the Qur'an was published by the state shortly thereafter.The way to write Esperanto in Persian (the language of Iran) is like this:
