I think anima amiko is ok.

It wouldn't give the impression of a ghost in Esperanto; ghost is "fantomo"

My lingvosento says that "animo" doesn't have a supernatural connotation.

"spirito" could be a little more ambiguous as far as ghosts etc, just as "spirit" is a bit ambiguous in English.

sudanglo:Kurt, one Esperanto translation of an English classic you might like to read is the translation of 'Winnie the Pooh'.

Totally brilliant in my estimation, and I think it is still stocked by 'libroservoj', or not that difficult to find at Congress bookstalls.
How delightful! I just came across Winnie the Pooh again as I mused through my library shelves and smiled with warm memories of the joy it brought my kids as I read it aloud to them an age of ages ago. Dankon pro la konsileton! Mi traserĉos ĝin ĉi tiun nokton! (Anywhere near correct? rideto.gif )

Saluton amiko!

No doubt I shall laugh at myself when I discover how obvious this answer is, but I have searched with no success to find La Ĉashundo de la Baskerviloj and Winnie the Pooh. demando.gif I would like to find them in both print and for a Kindle. Can you point me in the right direction? Dankon!

Amike,
Kurt

BOth are available through the Esperanto USA Retbutiko.
I found them searching for "winnie" and "cashund".

Curiously, that link to the Retbutiko at Esperanto USA gives an error message, as does going to the Esperanto USA site and clicking on Book Store.

Perhaps you have to be an American or a Member of the Association.

However both titles are in the Catalogue of the Esperanto Association of Britain EAB - Winnie-la-Pu at £11 and La Ĉashundo at £13 (ex post and pack). You don't have to be a member to access the catalogue or to buy from them.

I think there is a problem with the Retbutiko. I was able to access it yesterday, but I am also getting the error message today. Hopefully the Esperanto USA folks will get it back up and running quickly. If they don't I have called the office to place book orders in the past and found them quite helpful.
