In most languages, the words that mean "yes" or "no" are short because of their frequent use. To affirm something in spanish or italian, one uses the word "si." "Oui," is used in french. "Ja" is used in german etc.
A few months ago, I started feeling inclined to use oui, si and да instead of yes. The reason for this seems to be that those words are easier to say because they end in vowels. If that theory holds any water, it might be the cause of the english words "yeah" and "aye."
Is there such and alternative to "jes" in esperanto?

sed "ja" sole ne signifas "yes", but "sure", "indeed".
