IvoG:what exactly does the suffix "-adi" mean? like in the word "venadi"?It means a continuous, regular or repeated action. Here's the relevant page from PMEG (1st box, last two examples).

I have one!
When saying, for example "I want to learn esperanto" would you use to -i verb for learn?
Because 'lerni' means 'to learn' so would you say Mi volas lerni esperanto, or would you say Mi voli lerni esperanto? or volas leras?

1) "Kontrastoj bonas" - i'm assuming "bonas" is a verb (in present tense) here...but what exactly does it mean? "Contrasts are being good"? is it a way of saying "contrasts are good/kontrastoj estas bonaj"?
2) "La vetero estas malbona cxe mi" - does "cxe mi" mean "to me" in this context?
::*edit::*
3) what does "varmegi" mean

IvoG:If you have an adjective and replace the adjectival with a verbal ending, it means "to be xxx", so yes, it means "contrasts are good".

IvoG:It means "at my place".

IvoG:See above - varmega is "hot", so varmegi is "to be hot".

darkweasel:From my understanding this is a literal translation of "chez-moi" in French, yeah? Is it common in Esperantujo, since outside French it doesn't really make sense to me and I doubt to others, other than a vague way similar to "at mine", but Esperanto sometimes feels a little more literal...IvoG:It means "at my place".

(interesting fact I just found out - "chez" is derived from "house" (casa), so "chez moi" = some round about way of saying "at my house". I'm guessing that the Esperanto "ĉe" derives from this "chez", which is cool if so since it's another thing I can then pin an etymology on

ceigered:german has "bei mir" as well, so "che mi" is natural for us german speakers too.darkweasel:From my understanding this is a literal translation of "chez-moi" in French, yeah?

darkweasel:we use exactly the same expression in Bulgarian but i guess i was thinking in English cos it didn't make much sense to me a couple of hours ago

another question
in the sentence:"Mi nun estas en la lasta jaro antaŭ ol mi povos studi ĉe universitato." -> what's the role of that "ol" there? "ol" means "than", right?
