English is not my native language. I’m glad I learned it, because I just have an interest in linguistics and it’s very close to my native language, but I can clearly see how “imperialistic” this is, how my parents and friends struggle with that language, and how there could be something much easier, that would allow them to experience cultural exchanges without having to learn the “dominant” language.
Mi lernis Esperanton pli ol 20 jaroj. Ĝin estus mirinda, sed malĝoja, mi malrememoras multa, kay uzas Anglo kaj Germano pli.
