Spanish is more difficult than esperanto .Spanish is waaay more difficult than Esperanto. I say this as a native speaker. But then again, almost every language seem to be more difficult than Esperanto, at least that’s my impression.

dbob:But then again, almost every language seem to be more difficult than Esperanto, at least that’s my impression.Well, Toki Pona is much easier. It has only 120 words, and very easy grammar. But on the other hand, Toki Pona is so easy that it's hard. Because it's so abstract, that in order to say something you have to strip it down to its bare essentials.
At least that's the impression I got from the few things I have read and seen about it.
But apparently there's surprisingly much you can express despite its simplicity.

Rajzin: Toki Pona is much easier.True. I learned Toki Pona in a couple of days, but after a while, I lost interest in it. It was fun to give it a try, though.

ustra:Hxa! I was waiting! I knew the utterance of any sincere discussion would invoke vejktoro to troll, in any language.Sorry bud, and no need for insults, I meant no ill will. I know from the Eo forums that you love the conspiracy stuff, when I read the title it made me think of you and then there you were!
Hi vejktoro.
Imagine if the finvenko's only hope is some kinda NWO. Then the raumists would be practicing an evil hobby.
I'll leave the Toki Pona NWO twist alone.

ArmandK6:Esperanto is but a sketch of a language. As the consequence, there are things that cannot be expressed with it, and people has to calque their native syntax structures. As there is no way to reconcile them, Esperanto will always be a language for manuals, advertizements, etc., but not for the real interpersonal communication.Can you give us some examples of things that can't be expressed in Esperanto?
