I started this thread for us to chat about our Esperanto courses. I am already well into the first lesson and I think its very fun like doing a word game Don't forget to bookmark that page after you sign-up!On that study aid part I miss 2 Both had to do with verb tense. When we're done with the course we get a diploma ;D We can post them here. If anyone else is interrested. You can check out the first lesson without signing up by going to www.esperanto-usa.org/eo/node/175Click on the green word "here" You sign up for the free 10 lesson e-mail course by going to pacujo.net/esperanto/course/

I just finished my lesson one exercises and e-mailed them off to get graded. I think that I got them all correct I think that it said that it might take up to a week to hear back from them. My tutors name is Manlajo.

WOW! I got the results back already for the first lesson exercises. I messed up on 2 of the words. I guess you would say that I missed 2 out of 20 I got everything together already to do lesson 2. I might start it tomarrow.

That was quick. Two missed out of twenty isn't bad, though. I've taken a look at the first lesson and took some notes. I'll send out my fist lesson here soon. Got back online not too long ago and wanted to do a bit of posting tonight as well.

Imagine how much more important Esperanto would be if it came out that extraterrestrials do exist? I think that it would be neat if I could write songs in Esperanto

Writing songs in Esperanto would be neat. Extraterrestrials openly visiting would definitely change things. Don't know if people would want to use Esperanto more, but people do tend to band together when something previously unknown shows up.
I'll send my first lesson in soon.

I'll send my first lesson in soon. I hope that you get a reply as fast as I did. I felt really good about lesson one and then it turned out that I missed 2. Lesson 2 is a little harder and I'm uncertain about a few things

It's good that we have tutors, though, so we can ask questions. Some people can just pick up something and learn it on their own, but I do better when someone's there to help a bit.

Tomarrow after my mandolin lesson I'm going to see if I can order the movie Incubus and if they don't cost to much I might try an order Angoroj also. I'll also see if the bookstore in the mall has any Esperanto books. I bet they don't.

I've never looked for Esperanto books in a bookstore, so couldn't guess if you'd find any, but most bookstores will place orders upon request. Good luck ordering Incubus and Angoroj.

I've sent my first lesson off. Unfortunately things have been busier than I thought they'd be. Think I did well, though.

That's great, I can't wait to hear how you did. I just got my results back from lesson 2. I got 7 of the 20 wrong It kind of sound worse then it is. All you have to do is get one word wrong in a sentense. Maybe I should wait until you catch up to were I am?
